उत्तर
In the given ΔABC, we need to convert z in terms of x and y

Now, BC is a straight line, so using the property, “angles forming a linear pair are supplementary”
∠ABC + y = 180
∠ABC =180° - y°
Similarly,
∠ACB + x° = 180°
∠ACB = 180° - x
Also, using the property, “vertically opposite angles are equal”, we get,
z = ∠BAC
Further, using angle sum property of the triangle
∠BAC + ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 180°
z° + (180°- y°) + (180° - x°) = 180°
360° + z° - y° - x° = 180°
180° + z° = y° + x°
z° = y°+ x° -180°
Thus, z = y + x -180°

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,
