Theorem 10.1
If two angles of a triangles are congruent then the sides opposite to them are also
congruent A

ZBAD = ZCAD Construction
AABD = AACD SAA=S.AA
Hence AB = AC (Corresponding sides of congruent triaExample 1
If one angle of a right triangle is of 30°, the hypotenuse is twice as long as the side
opposite to the angle.

Let BD cut ACat the point D.
Proof
In AABD,m/ A=60° mZABC=90°,m2C = 30°
mZABD=m2 ABC, mCBD=60° m2 ABC = 90°, mZCBD = 30°
.. mADB = 60° Sum of measures of Zs of a A is 180°
, ABD is equilateral Each of its angles is equal to 60°
-.AB=BD=CD Sides of equilateral A
In ABCD,BD = CD ZC = ZCBD (each of 30),
ThusmAC = mad +mCD]
ABandCD = BD = AB
