उत्तर
From the figure, it can be observed that
AC = AB + BC
BD = BC + CD
It is given that AC = BD
AB + BC = BC + CD ...(1)
According to Euclid’s axiom, when equals are subtracted from equals, the remainders are also equal.
Subtracting BC from equation (1), we obtain
AB + BC − BC = BC + CD − BC
AB = CD
