उत्तर
In ∆ABC, BC = AB and ∠B = 80°. Then ∠A is equal to 50°.
Explanation:
Given, ∆ABC such that BC = AB and ∠B = 80°
In ∆ABC, AB = BC
⇒ ∠C = ∠A ...(i) [Angles opposite to equal sides are equal]
We know that, the sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180°.
∴ ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
⇒ ∠A + 80° + ∠A = 180° ...[From equation (i)]
⇒ 2∠A = 180° – 80° = 100°
⇒ ∠A = `(100^circ)/2`
⇒ ∠A = 50°

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)
