In quadrilateral ACBD, AC = AD and AB bisects ∠ A (see Figure). Show that â?? ABC ≅ â?? ABD. What can you say about BC and BD?

In ΔABC and ΔABD,

AC = AD (Given)

∠CAB = ∠DAB (AB bisects ∠A)

AB = AB (Common)

∴ ΔABC ≅ ΔABD (By SAS congruence rule)

∴ BC = BD (By CPCT)

Therefore, BC and BD are of equal lengths.

Comments

ABCD is a quadrilateral in which AD = BC and ∠ DAB = ∠ CBA (see Fiure). Prove that
(i) â?? ABD ≅ â?? BAC
(ii) BD = AC
(iii) ∠ ABD = ∠ BAC.

In ΔABD and ΔBAC,

AD = BC

∠DAB = ∠CBA

AB = AB (common side)

∴ ΔABD ≅ ΔBAC by SAS Test of congruency

∴ BD = AC (corressponding sides of congruent traingles)

∴ ∠ABD = ∠BAC (corressponding angles of congruent traingles)

Comments

AD and BC are equal perpendiculars to a line segment AB (see Figure). Show that CD bisects AB.

In ΔOCB and ΔODA,

BC = AD

∠CBO = ∠ DAO (both are 90°)

∠COB = ∠ DOA (vertically opposite angles)

∴ΔOCB ≅ ΔODA by AAS Test of congruency

∴ OB = OA (corressponding sides of congruent triangles)

∴ CD bisects AB

Comments

l and m are two parallel lines intersected by another pair of parallel lines p and q (see Figure). Show that â?? ABC ≅ â?? CDA.

In ΔABC and ΔCDA

∠BAC = ∠DCA (alternate interior angles)

∠BCA = ∠DAC (alternate interior angles)

AC = AC (common side)

∴ ΔABC ≅ ΔCDA by ASA Test of congruency

Comments

In Figure, AC = AE, AB = AD and ∠ BAD = ∠ EAC. Show that BC = DE.

∠ BAD = ∠ EAC

∴ ∠ BAD + ∠ DAC = ∠ EAC + ∠ DAC

∴ ∠ BAC = ∠ EAD

Now, in ΔABC and ΔADE

AB = AD

AC = AE

∠ BAC = ∠ EAD

∴ ΔABC ≅ ΔADE by ASA Test of congruency

∴ BC = DE (corressponding sides of congruent triangles)

Comments

AB is a line segment and P is its mid-point. D and E are points on the same side of AB such that ∠ BAD = ∠ ABE and ∠ EPA = ∠ DPB (see Figure). Show that
(i) â?? DAP ≅ â?? EBP
(ii) AD = BE

AB is a line segment and P is its mid-point. So, AP = PB

∠ EPA = ∠ DPB

∴ ∠ EPA + ∠ EPD = ∠ DPB + ∠ EPD

∴ ∠ APD = ∠ BPE

In ΔDAP and ΔEBP,

∠ PAD = ∠ PBE (Given, ∠ BAD = ∠ ABE)

AP = PB 

∠ APD = ∠ BPE

∴ ΔDAP ≅ ΔEBP by ASA Test of congruency

∴ AD = BE (Corressponding sides of congruent triangles)

 

Comments

In right triangle ABC, right angled at C, M is the mid-point of hypotenuse AB. C is joined to M and produced to a point D such that DM = CM. Point D is joined to point B
(see Figure). Show that:
(i) â?? AMC ≅ â?? BMD
(ii) ∠ DBC is a right angle.
(iii) â?? DBC ≅ â?? ACB 

(iv) 

(i) In ΔAMC and ΔBMD,

AM = BM (M is the mid-point of hypotenuse AB)

∠AMC = ∠BMD (vertically opposite angles)

CM = DM

ΔAMC ≅ ΔBMD by SAS Test of congruency

(ii) ∠ACM = ∠BDM (corressponding angles of congruent triangles)

Also, ∠ACM and ∠BDM form alternate interior angles with CD as the transversal. 

So, AC parallel to BD. 

So, ∠ACB and ∠DBC form co-interior angle with BC as transversal.

So, ∠ACB + ∠DBC = 180° (co-interior angle adds up to 180°)

∠ACB = 90° (It is given that in triangle ABC, right angled at C)

So, ∠DBC = 90°. So, ∠DBC is a right angle.

(iii) ΔAMC ≅ ΔBMD by SAS Test of congruency

∴ AC = BD (corressponding sides of congruent triangles)

Now, in ΔDBC and ΔACB

BD = AC

∠DBC = ∠ACB (both are 90°)

BC = BC (common side)

∴ ΔDBC ≅ ΔACB by SAS Test of congruency

(iv)  ∴ DC = AB (corressponding sides of congruent triangles)

∴ DM + MC = AB

∴ MC + MC = AB  (It is given, DM = MC)

∴ 2 MC = AB

∴ MC = 1/2 AB

Comments

Line l is the bisector of an angle ∠ A and B is any point on l. BP and BQ are perpendiculars from B to the arms of ∠ A (see Figure). Show that:
(i) Triangle APB ≅ triangle AQB
(ii) BP = BQ or B is equidistant from the arms of ∠ A.

(i) ∠APB = ∠AQB (It is given that both the angles are 90°)

(ii) In ΔABP and ΔABQ, ∠APB = ∠AQB (both are 90°)

                                         ∠BAP = ∠BAQ (line l bisects ∠A into ∠BAP and ∠BAQ)

                                         Side BA ≅ Side BA (common side of both the triangles)

Hence, ΔABP ≅ ΔABQ by AAS Test.

Hence, BP = BQ (corressponding sides of congruent triangles)
