In isosceles triangle abc,ab=ac and a is joined to the mid point d of the side bc prove that ad perpendicular to bc and ad bisects the angle a
Answers
Answer:
Since, the triangle is an isosceles with AB=AC
∠B = ∠C ( ∴ The angles opposite to equal sides are always equal )
Now, BD = DC ( ∴ D is the mid point )
Now, from triangle ABD and triangle ACD,
AB=AC (given)
∠B = ∠C ( Proved above)
BD = CD ( proved above )
Δ ABD ≅ Δ ACD ( by SAS congruence rule)
Now,
∠BAD = ∠CAD ( by CPCT )
AD bisects ∠A.
Again,
∠ADC = ∠ADB ( ∴ Angles opposite to equal sides AB and AD )
Now,
∠ADB+∠ADC = 180° ( Linear pair of angles )
Let each equal angles ∠ADB and ∠ADC be x then,
x+x = 180°
2x=180°
x=180° /2
x=90°
∠ADB=∠ADC = 90°
AD⊥BC
Hence proved
