Geometry Help Please :D
In ∆ABC shown below, ∡BAC is congruent to ∡BCA. Given: Base ∡BAC and ∡ACB are congruent. Prove: ∆ABC is an isosceles triangle. When completed, the following paragraph proves that is congruent to making ∆ABC an isosceles triangle. Construct a perpendicular bisector from point B to Line AC . Label the point of intersection between this perpendicular bisector and line AC as point D. m∡BDA and m∡BDC is 90° by the definition of a perpendicular bisector. ∡BDA is congruent to ∡BDC by the definition of congruent angles. line AD is congruent to DC by _______1________. ∆BAD is congruent to ∆BCD by the _______2________. Line AB is congruent to BC because congruent parts of congruent triangles are congruent (CPCTC). Consequently, ∆ABC is isosceles by definition of an isosceles triangle. 1.
