उत्तर
In the given figure, bisectors of ∠ABCand ∠ACDmeet at E and ∠BAC = 50°
We need to find ∠BEC

Here, using the property, “an exterior angle of the triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles”, we get,
In ΔABC with ∠ACD as its exterior angle
ext . ∠ACD = ∠A + ∠ABC ........(1)
Similarly, in Δ BECwith ∠ECDas its exterior angle
ext . ∠ECD = ∠EBC + ∠BEC
`1/2 ∠ACD = 1/2 ∠ABC + BEC`
(CE and BE are the bisectors of ∠ACD and ∠ABC)
∠BEC = 1/2 ∠ACD - 1/2 ∠ABC .......(2)
Now, multiplying both sides of (1) by 1/2
We get,
`1/2 ∠ACD = 1/2 ∠A +1/2 ∠ABC`
`1/2 ∠A = 1/2 ∠ACD - 1/2 ∠ABC` ......(3)
From (2) and (3) we get,
`∠BEC =1/2 ∠A`
`∠BEC =1/2 (50°)`
`∠BEC = 25°`
Thus, `∠BEC = 25°`

ABC is an isosceles triangle with AB = AC and D is a point on BC such that AD ⊥ BC (Figure). To prove that ∠BAD = ∠CAD, a student proceeded as follows:

In ∆ABD and ∆ACD,
AB = AC (Given)
∠B = ∠C (Because AB = AC)
and ∠ADB = ∠ADC
Therefore, ∆ABD ≅ ∆ACD (AAS)
So, ∠BAD = ∠CAD (CPCT)
