In a quadrilateral ABCD. AB= AD and AC is bisector angleA` show that ∆ ABC =~ ∆ ABD
Answers
Congruence of triangles:
Two ∆’s are congruent if sides and angles
of a triangle are equal to the corresponding sides and angles of the other ∆.
In Congruent Triangles corresponding parts
are always equal and we write it in short CPCT i e, corresponding parts of Congruent
Triangles.
It is necessary to write a correspondence
of vertices correctly for writing the congruence of triangles in symbolic form.
Criteria for congruence of triangles:
There are 4 criteria for congruence of
triangles.
In this question we use SAS
SAS( side angle side):
Two Triangles are congruent if two sides
and the included angle of a triangle are equal to the two sides and included
angle of the the other triangle.

Solution:
Given: In quadrilateral ABCD,
AC = AD & AB bisects ∠A i.e, ∠CAB = ∠DAB
To prove,
ΔABC ≅ ΔABD
Proof,
In ΔABC
& ΔABD,
AB = AB (Common)
AC = AD (Given)
∠CAB = ∠DAB
(AB is bisector)
Hence, ΔABC ≅ ΔABD.
(by SAS congruence rule)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
in triangle abc & abd
AB = AD (GIVEN)
<BAC = <DAC (AC IS BISECTOR OF A)
AC = AC (COMMON)
