Answer:
ABC and DBC are two isosceles triangles with the common base, BC.
In ABD and ACD
AB = AC;
BD = CD;
AD = AD
ABD ACD (SSS congruence rule)
BAE = CAE (c.p.c.t)
In ABE and ACE
AB = AC;
BAE = CAE ;
AE = AE
ABE ACE (SAS congruence rule)
BEA = CEA and BE = EC (c.p.c.t)
BEA + CEA = 180o (linear pair)
2BEA = 180o
BEA = 90o
BEA = 90o = CEA
Hence, AD bisects the base BC at right angles.
