Solution

Given: ABC is an Isosceles triangle with AB = AC. BD bisects B and CE bisects C
To find whether BD = CE or not!
AB=AC (Given)
hence, B=C (Isosceles triangle property) (I)
12B=12C
DBC=ECB (II) (BD bisects B and CE bisects C)
Now, In BDC and FBC
BC=BC (Common)
C=B (From I)
DBC=ECB (From II)
Thus, BDCCFB (ASA rule)
Hence, BD=CE (By cpct)
