उत्तर
If altitudes CE and BF of a triangle ABC are equal, then
AB A C
Reason: From RHS congruence criterionΔ BEC ≅CFB ⇒∠EBC = ∠FCB⇒∠ABC = ∠ACB⇒ AC=AB
[ ∵Sides opposite to equal angels are equal]

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)
