Since angle C is bisected,
angle (x) = angle (y)
Segment AC = segment BC ( This one was given)
Segment CF = segment CF (Common side is the same for both triangle ACF and triangle BCF)
Triangles ACF and triangle BCF are then congruent by SAS or side-angle-side
In other words, by
AC-angle(x)-CF
and
BC-angle(y)-CF
Since triange ACF and triangle BCF are congruent, angle A = angle B
angle (x) = angle (y)
Segment AC = segment BC ( This one was given)
Segment CF = segment CF (Common side is the same for both triangle ACF and triangle BCF)
Triangles ACF and triangle BCF are then congruent by SAS or side-angle-side
In other words, by
AC-angle(x)-CF
and
BC-angle(y)-CF
Since triange ACF and triangle BCF are congruent, angle A = angle B

consider triangle ABC
AB=AC
draw a perpendicular from A to BC
AB=AC
AD=AD
angle ADB=angle ADC=90⁰
according to hypotenuse leg axiom triangles ABD,ADC are congruent
∴ angle ABD=angle ACD
