Solution

i) In a isosceles triangle , The perpendicular bisector Of the 3rd side passes through Vertex
So, the line Passes through Both A,D i.e., AD when produced bisects BC at right angle
ii) In ABDACD
AD=AD (common side)(1)
DB=CD (BCD is isosceles )(2)
AB=AC (ABC is isosceles )(3)
From (1)(2)(3) Triangles are congruent
So, BDA=CDA
