Solution
Given that D is the midpoint of BC of △ABC.
DF⊥AC;DE=DF
DE⊥AB
In △BED and △CFD
∠BED=∠CFD (given as 90∘)
BD=CD (∴D is mid point of BC)
ED = FD (given)
∴△BED≅△CFD (RHS congruence)
DF⊥AC;DE=DF
DE⊥AB
In △BED and △CFD
∠BED=∠CFD (given as 90∘)
BD=CD (∴D is mid point of BC)
ED = FD (given)
∴△BED≅△CFD (RHS congruence)
