उत्तर

Const: Join CD.
In ΔABC,
AB = AC ...[ Given ]
∴ ∠C = ∠B .......(i) [angles opp. to equal sides are equal]
In ΔACD,
AC = AD ...[Given]
∴ ∠ADC = ∠ACD ...(ii)
Adding (i) and (ii)
∠B + ∠ADC = ∠C + ACD
∠B + ∠ADC = ∠BCD ...(iii)
In ΔBCD,
∠B + ∠ADC + ∠BCD = 180°
∠BCD + ∠BCD = 180° ...[From (iii)]
2∠BCD = 180°
∠BCD = 90°
