Solution

Given, In ABC, A=90 and ADBC
In ABC,
BAC+ABC+ACB=180
90+ABC+ACB=180
ABC+ACB=90 (I)
In CAD,
CAD+ACD+ADC=180
CAD+ACD+90=180
CAD+ACD=90..(II)
Equating (I) and (II),
ABC+ACB=CAD+ACD
ABC=CAD...(III)
Similarly, ACB=BAD...(IV)
Now, In s, ABD and CBA
BAD=ACB ..(From IV)
ADB=BAC (Each 90)
ABD=ABC (Common angle)
Thus, ABDCBA (AAA rule)
Thus, ABCB=BDAB (Sides of similar triangles are in proportion)
AB2=BD×CB
