of the circle with centre 0. Diameter
CD is perpendicular to chord AB at
point E Show that A ABC is an
isosceles triangle.
Answers
Answer:
Answer:
Given : CD is the diameter with centre O , CD perpendicular to chord AB at point E
To prove : triangle ABC IS isoceles triangle
Solution : IN triangle ABC ,
OE is perpendicular to AB so
AE = EB.....(1).....perpendicular drawn from the centre of the circle to a chord bisects the chord
Angle CEA = CEB..... (2)....CE IS PERPENDICULAR
SIDE CE=CE. ....(3)....SAME SIDE
THEREFORE , FROM 1 , 2 AND 3
CAE = CBE ....BY SAS TEST
THEREFORE CA=CB....(4)...C.S.C.T.
From (4)...TRIANGLE ABC IS ISOCELOUS TRIANGLE , HENCE PROVED
from ∆ OAB, OA and OB is same as radious of one cercle.
From ∆OEA and ∆OEB
- OA=OB
- angle OEA and angle OEB is equal is 90°
- OE is common .
that's we proved ∆OEA is simmilar to ∆OEB
then all simmilar part of two ∆ are simmilar
so,AE is equal to BE.
Also from ∆CEA and ∆CEB
- OE is common
- AE=BE
- angle CEA = angle CEB=90°
So from above we can get AC is equal to AB
Hence proved ∆ABC is a isosceles Tringle.
