is the angle bisector of angle
Prove that
What will be an ideal response?
Answers will vary. A sample correct response would be as follows.
?BAD ? ?DEB as both are right angles, and as
is the angle bisector of
From the AA similarity property, it follows that
Thus
Now the sum of the measures of all the angles in quadrilateral ADEB is 360°, so it follows that
But clearly
so we have
Thus
However, then
As
by the AA similarity property,
and hence
It follows immediately that
