Question

In the given figure, $A B = A C$ and $B D = E C$ then prove that $Δ A D E$ is an isosceles triangle.

Open in App

Solution

In $Δ A B D$ and $Δ A E C$
$A B = A C$ (given) …(i)
$∠ A B C = ∠ A C B$ …(ii) (angle opposite to equal sides are equal)
Also $B D = E C$ (given) …(iii)
From (i), (ii) and (iii), we have
$Δ A B D = Δ A E C$ (by SAS congruency property)
$A D = A E$ (by c.p.c.t)
Hence, $Δ A D E$ is an isosceles triangle.
Hence proved.
