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°

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)
