Answer:
Given data:
In ∆ABC,
D is the midpoint of BC
∴ BD = DC ….. (i)
DE ⊥ AB ….. (ii)
DF ⊥ AC ….. (iii)
DE = DF ….. (iv)
To show: ∆BED is congruent to ∆CFD
In ∆BED and ∆CFD, we have
BD = DC [from (i)]
∠BED = ∠CFD = 90° [from (ii) & (iii)]
DE = DF [from (iv)]
Thus, by RHS congruence i.e., Right-angle-Hypotenuse-Side congruence in which, if two right-angled triangles have their hypotenuses and a pair of shorter sides are equal in length then the triangles congruent, we can say
∆BED ≅ ∆CFD
Hence proved
