Step-by-step explanation:
ANSWER
In △ABC
∠ABC=2∠ACB ( given)
Let ∠ACB=x
BP is bisector of ∠ABC
∴∠ABP=∠PBC=x
By angle bisector theorem
the bisector of an divides the side opposite to it in ratio of other two sides
Hence,
BC
AB
=
PA
CP
∴
BA
CB
=
PA
CP
Consider △ABC and △APB
∠ABC=∠APB (exterior angle properly)
given that, ∠BCP=∠ABP
∴ABC≈△APB (AA criteria)
∴
BP
AB
=
CB
CA
(corresponding sides of similar triangle are propositional)
∴AB×BC=BP×CA
Hence proved
