उत्तर

Given: ΔACB and ΔADB are two right angled triangles with common hypotenuse AB.
To prove: ∠BAC = ∠BDC
Construction: Join CD.
Proof: Let O be the mid-point of AB
Then, OA = OB = OC = OD.
Since, mid-point of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equidistant from its verticles.
Now, draw a circle to pass through the points A, B, C and D with O as centre and radius equal to OA.
We know that, angles in the same segment of a circle are equal.
From the figure, ∠BAC and ∠BDC are angles of same segment BC.
∴ ∠BAC = ∠BDC
Hence proved.
