उत्तर
Given that P is a point on the bisector of an angle ABC, and PQ|| AB.
We have to prove that ΔBPQis isosceles
Since,
BP is bisector of ∠ABC⇒∠ABP=∠PBC ............(1)
Now,
PQllAB
⇒ ∠BPQ=∠ABP ................(2)
[alternative angles]
From (1) and (2), we get
∠BPQ=∠PBC(or)∠BPQ=∠PBQ
Now,
In , ΔBPQ
∠BPQ=∠PBQ
⇒ΔBPQ is an isosceles triangle.
∴Hence proved
