प्रश्न

The vertical angle of an isosceles triangle is 100°. Find its base angles.

उत्तर

Consider an isosceles ΔABC such that AB= AC 
Given that vertical angle A is 100°.  Given to find the base angles
SinceΔABC is isosceles 

∠B = ∠C                   [Angles opposite to equal angle are equal] 

And also , 

Sum of the interior angle of a triangle = 180° 

⇒∠Aa+∠B+∠C=180° 

⇒100°+∠B+∠B=180°  

⇒2∠B=180°-100° ⇒2∠B=80°

⇒∠B=40 °

⇒∠B=∠C=40°

Find all the angles of an equilateral triangle.


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)

What is the defect in the above arguments?

[Hint: Recall how ∠B = ∠C is proved when AB = AC].


In a triangle ABC, D is the mid-point of side AC such that BD = `1/2` AC. Show that ∠ABC is a right angle.
