उत्तर
△ABC is an isosceles triangle.
∴ AB = AC
∠ACB = ∠ABC ...[Angles opposite to equal sides of a △ are equal]
∠BCE = ∠CBF
Now, in △BEC and △CFB
∠BCE = ∠CBF ...[Proved above]
∠BEC = ∠CFB ...[Each 90°]
BC = CB ...[Common]
∴ △BEC ≅ △CFB ...[By AAS congruence]
So, BE = CF ...[By Corresponding parts of congruent triangles]
