उत्तर
ABCD is a quadrilateral. AB = AD.
AE and AF are the internal bisector of ∠BAC and ∠DAC
.
To prove: EF || BD.
Construction: Join EF and BD
Proof: In ∆ ABC, AE is the internal bisector of ∠BAC.
By Angle bisector theorem, we have,
∴ `"AB"/"AC" = "BE"/"EC"` ...(1)
In ∆ ADC, AF is the internal bisector of ∠DAC
By Angle bisector theorem, we have,
`"AD"/"AC"= "DF"/"FC"`
∴ `"AB"/"AC" = "DF"/"FC"` ...(AB = AD given) ...(2)
From (1) and (2), we get,
`"BE"/"EC" = "DF"/"FC"`
Hence in ∆ BCD,
BD || EF ...(by converse of BPT)
