Answer:
Given:-ABC is an isosceles triangle
→AB=AC
also,AD=AB
To prove:- Angle BCD is a right angle
Proof:- Let us Consider ΔABC,
AB = AC (Given)
Also, ACB = ABC (angles opposite to the equal sides are equal)
Now, Let us consider ΔACD,
AD = AB (Given)
Also, ADC = ACD (angles opposite to the equal sides are equal)
Now,
In ΔABC,
CAB + ACB + ABC = 180°
So, CAB + 2ACB = 180°
⇒ CAB = 180° – 2ACB — (i)
Similarly, in ΔADC,
CAD = 180° – 2ACD — (ii)
also,
CAB + CAD = 180° (BD is a straight line.)
Adding (i) and (ii) we get,
CAB + CAD = 180° – 2ACB + 180° – 2ACD
⇒ 180° = 360° – 2ACB-2ACD
⇒ 2(ACB+ACD) = 180°
⇒ BCD = 90°
Hence Proved
