उत्तर
Given: A ΔABQ in which AB is bisected at P
PQ is perpendicular to AB
We need to prove that
QA = QB
Proof:
In ΔAPQ and ΔBPQ
AP = PB ...[ P is the mid-point of AB ]
∠QPA = ∠QPB = 90° ...[ PQ is perpendicular to AB ]
PQ = PQ ...[ Common]
∴ By Side-Angel-Side criterion of congruence,
ΔQAP ≅ ΔQBP
The corresponding parts of the congruent triangles are
congruent.
∴ QA = QB ...[ c.p.c.t ]
