.Prove that the bisectors of alternate interior angles are parallel, if two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal.
Answers
AB and CD are two parallel line intersected by a transverse L.
X and Y are the point of intersection of L with AB and CD respectively.
XP, XQ, YP and YQ are the angle bisector of ∠AXY,∠BXY,∠CYXand∠DYX
AB∥CD and L is transversal.
∴∠AXY=∠DYX (pair of alternate angle)
⇒21∠AXY=21∠DXY
⇒∠1=∠4(∠1=21∠AXYand∠4=21∠DXY)
⇒YQPX
(If a transversal intersect two line in such a way that a pair of alternate
interior angle are equal, then the two line are parallel)...(1)
Also ∠BXY=∠CYX (pair of alternate angle)
⇒1/2∠BXY=21∠CYX
⇒∠2=∠3(∠2=21∠BXYand∠3=21∠CYX)
⇒XQPY
(If a transversal intersect two line in such a way that a pair of alternate
interior angle are angle, then two line are parallel)...(2)
from (1) and (2), we get
PXQY is parallelogram ....(3)
∠CYD=180°
⇒1/2∠CYD=2180=90°⇒21(∠CYX+∠DYX)=900⇒21∠CYX+21∠DYX=90°⇒∠3+∠4=90°⇒∠PYQ=90°...(4)
So using (3) and (4) we conclude that PXQY is a rectangle.
Now, since alternate lines are parallel to each other in a rectangle
We can say that, the bisectors of alternate interior angles are parallel, if two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal.
Hence proved.

Answer:
Given :- Two parallel lines AB and CD and transversal EF intersects them at G and H respectively. GM and HN are the bisectors of the alternate angles AGH and GHD.
To prove :- GM ll HN.
Proof :- Since AB ll CD and transversal EF cuts them at G and H respectively. Therefore,
AGH = GHD
1/2 ∠GHD = 1/2 ∠EGB
⇒ MGH = GHN
Thus, two lines and HN are intersected by a transversal GH at G and H respectively such that a pair of alternate angles are equal.
Hence, GM ll HN.
