help me In ΔABC shown below, ∠BAC is congruent to ∠BCA: Triangle ABC, where angles A and C are congruent Given: Base ∠BAC and ∠ACB are congruent. Prove: ΔABC is an isosceles triangle. When completed (fill in the blanks), the following paragraph proves that Line segment AB is congruent to Line segment BC making ΔABC an isosceles triangle. Construct a perpendicular bisector from point B to Line segment AC. Label the point of intersection between this perpendicular bisector and Line segment AC as point D: m∠BDA and m∠BDC is 90° by the definition of a perpendicular bisector.

BD=BD from reflexive property Triangles BAD and BCD are congruent from , angle-angle-side

OpenStudy (danjs):

corresponding parts are congruent, BA=BC
