D, E, and F are the mid-points of the sides AB, BC and CA of an isosceles ΔABC in which AB = BC.
Prove that ΔDEF is also isosceles.

उत्तर

DF = `1/2`BC ...(i)
DE = `1/2`AC ...(ii)
EF = `1/2`AB
EF = `1/2`BC ...(iii) ...[AB = BC]
From equation (i) & (ii)
DF = EF
Hence, DEF is also isosceles triangle.
