Question
In the given figure ray AZ bisects ∠BAD and ∠DCB, prove that AB = AD

Advertisements
Solution
In ∆BAC and ∆DAC
∠BAC = ∠DAC ...[Given `bar("AZ")` bisects ∠BAD]
∠BCA = ∠DCA ...[`bar("AZ")` bisects ∠DCB]
AC = AC ...[∵ common side]
∴ Here AC is the included side of the angles
By ASA criterior, ∆BAC ≅ ∆DAC .......(i)
From (i) ∆BAC ≅ ∆DAC
BA = DA ...[By CPCTC]
i.e., AB = AD
