Answer:
Given ; In the figure , O is center of the circle , and AB is chord . P is a point on AB such that AP = PB
We need to prove that AP = BP
Construction ; Join OA and OB
Proof ;
In right triangles ΔOAPandΔOBP
Hypotenuse OA = OB [radii of the same circle]
Side OP = Op [Common]
By Right angle - Hypotenuse - Side criterion of congruency ,
ΔOAP≅ΔOBP
the corresponding parts of the congruent triangles are congruent ,
AP = BP [by c.p.c.t]
Hence proved
