Here we will prove that the sides opposite to the equal angles of a triangle are equal.
Given: In ∆ABC, ∠XYZ = ∠XZY.
To prove: XY = XZ.
Construction: Draw the bisector XM of ∠YXZ so that it meets YZ at M.
Proof:
Statement 1. In ∆XYM and ∆XZM, (i) ∠XYM = XZM (ii) ∠YXM = ∠ZXM (iii) XM = XM. 2. ∆XYM ≅ ∆XZM 3. XY = XZ. (Proved) |
Reason 1. (i) Given. (ii) XM bisects ∠YXZ. (iii) Common side. 2. By AAS criterion. 3. CPCTC. |
