उत्तर

In △BOC and △AOD,

∠OBC = ∠OAD      ...[Each 90° (Given)]

∠BOC = ∠AOD      ...[Vertically opposite angles]

BC = AD        ...[Given]

∴ △BOC ≌ △AOD       ...[By AAS congruence rule]

⇒ OB = OA           ...[Corresponding parts of congruent triangles]

i.e., O is the mid-point of AB.

So, CD bisects the line segment AB.
