Show that in an isosceles triangle, angles opposite to equal sides are equal.
║⊕ANSWER⊕║
Given - An isosceles Δ ABC
AB=AC
To prove :- Angles opposite to equal sides are also equal
Construction :- Draw AP bisector of angle A meeting BC at P.
In ∆ABP and ∆ACP
AP=AP[common]
AB=AC [given]
∠ BAP = ∠ CAP [by construction]
∴ ∆ABP ≅ ∆ACP [S.A.S]
∴ ∠ABP = ∠ACP [C.P.C.T]
Hence proved that angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal.
