उत्तर
AL is the bisector of angle A. Let D is any point on AL. From D, a straight line DE is drawn parallel to AC.
DE || AC .........[Given]
∴ ∠ADE = ∠DAC .....….(i) [Alternate angles]
∠DAC = ∠DA ........(ii) [AL is bisector of A]
From (i) and (ii)
∠ADE = ∠DAE
∴ AE = ED .......[Sides opposite to equal angles are equal]
Therefore, AED is an isosceles triangle.
