Hi there!
Consider PQR is an isosceles triangle such that PQ = PR and Pl is the bisector of ∠ P.
To prove : ∠PLQ = ∠PLR = 90°
and QL = LX
In ΔPLQ and ΔPLR
PQ = PR (Given)
PL = PL (Common)
∠QPL = ∠RPL ( PL is the bisector of ∠P)
ΔPLQ = ΔPLR ( SAS congruence criterion)
QL = LR (by c.p.c.t)
and ∠PLQ + ∠PLR = 180° (Linear pair)
2∠PLQ = 180°
∠PLQ = 180° / 2 = 90°
∴ ∠PLQ = ∠PLR = 90°
Thus, ∠PLQ = ∠PLR = 90° and QL = LR.
Hence,
The bisector of the verticle angle an isosceles triangle bisects the base at right angle.

This two triangles are congruent by ASA congruence
So, BCA = DCA. (CPCT)
But they are linear pair, so,
BCA + DCA = 180°
2BCA = 180°
BCA = 90°
BCA = DCA = 90°
Hence, proved
Hope this helps!!!!
Plsss make it the brainliest
