Question

In the figure, we have BX=1/2AB,BY=1/2BCandAB=BC show that BX=BY

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We have AB=BC [Given] 

Now, by Euclid's axiom 7, we have things which are halves of the same things are equal to one another. 

∴  21AB=21BC 

Hence. BX=BY. [∵BX=21AB and BY=21BC (Given)]
