उत्तर
In isosceles △ABC,
AB = AC ...[ABC is an isosceles triangle]
∴ ∠ACB = ∠ABC …(i) ...[Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal]
Also, in isosceles △BCD,
BD = DC ...[BDC is an isosceles triangle]
∴ ∠BCD = ∠CBD ...(ii) ...[Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal]
On adding the corresponding sides of (i) and (ii)
∠ACB + ∠BCD = ∠ABC + ∠CBD
⇒ ∠ACD = ∠ABD or ∠ABD = ∠ACD ...(By Corresponding parts of congruent triangles)

ABC is an isosceles triangle with AB = AC and D is a point on BC such that AD ⊥ BC (Figure). To prove that ∠BAD = ∠CAD, a student proceeded as follows:
In ∆ABD and ∆ACD,
AB = AC (Given)
∠B = ∠C (Because AB = AC)
and ∠ADB = ∠ADC
Therefore, ∆ABD ≅ ∆ACD (AAS)
So, ∠BAD = ∠CAD (CPCT)
