उत्तर
Using the exterior angle and property in ΔACD, we have
∠ACB = ∠CDA + ∠CAD
⇒ ∠ACB > ∠CDA ------(1)
Now, AB = AC
Now, ∠ACB = ∠ABC ------(2)
From (1) and (2)
∠ABC > ∠CDA
It is known that, in a triangle, the greater angle has the longer side opposite to it.
Now, In ΔABD, er have ∠ABC > ∠CDA
∴ AD > AB.
