उत्तर
Given, X is the mid-point of AC
AX = CX = `1/2` AC
⇒ 2AX = 2CX = AC ...(i)
And Y is the mid-point of BC.
BY = CY = `1/2` BC
⇒ 2BY = 2CY = BC ...(ii)
Also, given AX = CY ...(iii)
According to Euclid’s axiom, things which are double of the same things are equal to one another.
From equation (iii), 2AX = 2CY
⇒ AC = BC ...[From equation (i) and (ii)]
