Question:-
In ΔABC, AD is the perpendicular bisector of BC (see the given figure). Show that ΔABC is an isosceles triangle in which AB = AC.
Step by Step explanation:-
Given :
In ΔABC, AD is the perpendicular bisector of BC.
To Prove :
ΔABC is an isosceles triangle in which AB = AC.
Solution :
In ΔADC and ΔADB,
AD = AD (Common)
∠ADC =∠ADB (Each 90º)
CD = BD (AD is the perpendicular bisector of BC)
∴ ΔADC ≅ ΔADB (By SAS congruence rule)
∴AB = AC (By CPCT)
Therefore, ABC is an isosceles triangle in which AB = AC.
Hence proved
Additional Information
- A line which cuts a line segment into two equal parts at 90° is known as perpendicular bisector.
- An isosceles triangle is a triangle with (at least) two equal sides.
- SSS (side-side-side) All three corresponding sides are congruent.
- SAS (side-angle-side) Two sides and the angle between them are congruent.
- ASA (angle-side-angle)Two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to the corresponding angles and side of another triangle, the triangles are congruent

- AD ⊥ BC
- AB = AC
In△ABD and △ACD
∠BAD = ∠CAD [ AD Bisects ∠A ]
AD = AD [ Common ]
∠ADB = ∠ ADC = 90° [ Given ]
So, △ABD ≅ △ACD [by ASA rule ]
So, AB = AC [ by CPCT ]
or, △ABC is an isosceles triangle.
hope it helps you.....✌✌
