OR
i) OB = OC
It is given that in triangle ABC,
AB = AC (given)
∠ACB = ∠ABC (Angles opposite to equal sides of an isosceles triangle are
equal) ½
1/2 ∠ACB = 1/2 ∠ABC
⇒ ∠OCB = ∠OBC (Since OB and OC are the angle bisectors of ∠ABC and ½
∠ACB)
∴ OB = OC (Sides opposite to equal angles of an isosceles triangle are also ½
equal)
ii) AO bisects ∠A ½
In ΔOAB and ΔOAC,
AO = AO (Common) ½
AB = AC (Given)
OB = OC (Proved above) ½
Therefore,
ΔOAB ≅ ΔOAC (By SSS congruence rule)
Also, we can use an alternative approach as shown below,
∠OBA = ∠OCA (OB and OC bisects angle ∠B and ∠C)
AB = AC (Given)
OB = OC (Proved above)
ΔOAB ≅ ΔOAC (By SAS congruence rule)
⇒ ∠BAO = ∠CAO (CPCT)
∴ AO bisects ∠A or AO is the angle bisector of ∠A.
30) P and Q are the mid-points of AB and BC respectively.
∴ PQ || AC and PQ = 1/2 AC (Mid-point theorem) ... (1)
Similarly, in △ADC,
½
SR || AC and SR = 1/2 AC (Mid-point theorem) ... (2)
Clearly, PQ || SR and PQ = SR [From equation (1) and (2)] ½
Since in quadrilateral PQRS, one pair of opposite sides are equal and parallel
to each other, it is a parallelogram. ½
∴ PS || QR and PS = QR (Opposite sides of the parallelogram) ... (3)
In △BCD, Q and R are the mid-points of side BC and CD respectively. ½
∴ QR || BD and QR = 1/2 BD (Mid-point theorem) ... (4)
However, the diagonals of a rectangle are equal. ½
∴ AC = BD ... (5)
Thus, QR = 1/2 AC ½
Also, in △BAD
PS || BD and PS = 1/2 BD
Thus, QR = PS .... (6)
By using Equations (1), (2), (3), (4), and (5), we obtain
PQ = QR = SR = PS
Therefore, PQRS is a rhombus.
OR
Given : l∥m
Transversal p intersects l & m at A & C respectively. Bisector of ∠ PAC
& ∠ QCA meet at B. And, bisector of ∠ SAC & ∠ RCA meet at D.
To prove : ABCD is a rectangle.
Proof :
We know that a rectangle is a parallelogram with one angle 90o.
For l∥m and transversal p
∠PAC=∠ACR
½
So, 12∠PAC=12∠ACR
So, ∠BAC=∠ACD
For lines AB and DC with AC as transversal ∠BAC & ∠ACD are alternate
½
angles, and they are equal.
So, AB∥DC.
Similarly, for lines BC & AD, with AC as transversal ∠BAC & ∠ACD are
alternate angles, and they are equal.
½
So, BC∥AD.
Now, In ABCD,
AB∥DC & BC∥AD
½
As both pair of opposite sides are parallel, ABCD is a parallelogram.
Also, for line l,
∠PAC+∠CAS=180o
½
12∠PAC+12∠CAS=90o
 ∠BAC+∠CAD=90o
∠BAD=90o. ½
So, ABCD is a parallelogram in which one angle is 90o.
Hence, ABCD is a rectangle.
