45. In ∆ABC, AB = AC, ∠A = 36°. If the internal bisector of ∠C meets AB at D, Prove that AD = DC. 


Given: In ∆ABC, AB = AC, ∠A = 36°. The internal bisector of ∠C meets AB at D.
To Prove: AD = DC


Given: In ∆ABC, AB = AC, ∠A = 36°. The internal bisector of ∠C

Proof: In ∆ABC,
∵ AB = AC
∴ ∠ABC = ∠ACB    ...(1)
| Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal
Also, ∠BAC + ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 180°
| Angle sum property of a triangle
⇒ 360° + ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 180°
⇒    ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 144° ...(2)
From (1) and (2),

angle A B C equals angle A C B equals 1 half cross times 144 degree equals 72 degree

Now, ∵ CD bisects ∠ACB

therefore space space space space angle BCD equals angle ACD equals 1 half cross times 72 degree equals 36 degree

Again, In ∆ACD,
∠ACD = ∠CAD (= 36°)
∴ AD = DC
| Sides opposite to equal angles of a triangle are equal
