Given : Lines AB and CD intersect each other at O.
OE and OF are the bisectors of ∠AOC and ∠BOD respectively
To prove : OE and OF are in the same line
Proof : ∵ ∠AOC = ∠BOD (Vertically opposite angles)
∵ OE and OF are the bisectors of ∠AOC and ∠BOD
∴ ∠1 = ∠2 and ∠3 = ∠4
⇒ ∠1 = ∠2 = ∠AOC and ∠3 = ∠4 = ∠BOD ∴ ∠1 = ∠2 = ∠3 = ∠4
∵ AOB is a line
∴ ∠BOD + ∠AOD = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒ ∠3 + ∠4 + ∠AOD = 180°
⇒ ∠3 + ∠1 + ∠AOD = 180° (∵ ∠1 = ∠4)
∴ EOF is a straight line
