उत्तर
Construction: Join FB and FC
Proof: In ΔAFE and ΔFBE,
AE = EB ...(E is the mid-point of AB)
∠FEA = ∠FEB ...(Each = 90°)
FE = FE ...(Common)
∴ By side Angle side criterion of congruence,
ΔAFE ≅ ΔFBE ...(SAS Postulate)
The corresponding parts of the congruent triangles are congruent.
∴ AF = FB ...(C.P.C.T.)
Hence, F is equidistant from A and B.
