Question

P is a point on bisector of angle A of △ABC. Then:

The image displays a triangle ABC with an interior point P connected by dashed lines to vertices A, B, and C, featuring angle arcs at vertex A. It illustrates triangle concurrency, the incenter, and the properties of angle bisectors.

Options

  • P is equidistant from the vertices B and C.

  • PA = PC

  • PA = PB

  • P is equidistant from sides AB and AC.

Solution

P is equidistant from sides AB and AC.

Explanation:

We know that,

The locus of a point equidistant from two intersecting lines is the bisector of the angles between the lines.

Given,

P is a point on bisector of angle A of △ABC.

∴ P is equidistant from sides AB and AC of the △ABC.
