hey there !
Answer:
Given.
AB= AC;
PQ and PR are perpendicular on sides AB and AC from the point P respectively. BS is perpendicular on side AC from point B
Formula used.
Area of triangle = × Base × Height
As triangle ABC and triangle ACP combines to form triangle ABP
Area of triangle ABP = Area of triangle ABC + Area of triangle ACP
Area of triangle ABP = × Base × Height
× AB × PQ
Area of triangle ABC = × Base × Height
× AC × BS
Area of triangle ACP = × Base × Height
× AC × PR
⇒ × AB × PQ = × AC × BS + × AC × PR
As AB = AC (Given)
⇒ × AC × PQ = × AC × BS + × AC × PR
Taking common ×AC get removed
⇒ PQ = BS + PR
∴ PQ – PR = BS
Hence proved
