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]
