Given :- the given figure PQ = PR and TQ = TR.
To Prove :-
- (i) PS bisects angle QTR .
- (ii) PS is perpendicular to QR .
Solution :-
(i)
In ∆PQT and ∆PRT we have,
→ PQ = PR { given }
→ TQ = TR { given }
→ PT = PT { common }
So,
→ ΔPQT ≅ΔPRT {By SSS congruence rule }
then,
→ ∠QPT = ∠RPT { By CPCT }
Or,
→ ∠QPS = ∠RPS ---------- Equation (1)
Therefore, we can conclude that, PS is angle bisector of ∠QPR .
Now, Since PQR is an isosceles ∆ as PQ = PR . Then, angle bisector from vertex also bisect the base of the isosceles ∆ .
hence,
→ QS = RS ------------- Equation (2)
Now, In ∆TQS and ∆TRS we have,
→ TQ = TR { given }
→ QS = RS { from Equation (2) }
→ TS = TS { common }
So,
→ ΔTQS ≅ΔTRS {By SSS congruence rule }
then,
→ ∠QTS = ∠RTS { By CPCT }
therefore,
→ TS bisects angle QTR .
Or,
→ PS bisects angle QTR (Proved) .
(ii)
In ∆QPS and ∆RPS we have,
→ PQ = PR { given }
→ ∠QPS = ∠RPS { from Equation (1) }
→ PS = PS { common }
So,
→ ΔTQS ≅ΔTRS {By SAS congruence rule }
then,
→ ∠QSP = ∠RSP { By CPCT } -------- Equation (3)
now, since QR is a straight line,
→ ∠QSP + ∠RSP = 180° { Linear pair }
using Equation (3),
→ ∠QSP + ∠QSP = 180°
→ 2•∠QSP = 180°
→ ∠QSP = 90°
therefore, we can conclude that,
→ PS is perpendicular to QR (Proved) .
Remember :-
- In Equation (1) we proved that, PS is angle bisector of isosceles ∆QPR . Then, PS is also perpendicular to QR by isosceles triangle theorem .
