Solution

The correct option is A
1

In $△ A B E$ and $△ A C D,$

$A B = A C$ ... (i) [opposite sides of equal angles]

$∠ A = ∠ A$ [common angle]

$A D = A E$ [halves of equal sides from (i)]

$\Rightarrow △ A B E ≅ △ A C D$ [SAS rule]

$\Rightarrow C D = B E$ [CPCTE]

Hence, $\frac{B E}{C D} = 1$
