Question -

In the figure, AE bisects ∠CAD and ∠B = ∠C. Prove that AE || BC.



Answer -

Given : In AABC, BA is produced and AE is the bisector of ∠CAD
∠B = ∠C
 
To prove : AE || BC
Proof: In ∆ABC, BA is produced
∴ Ext. ∠CAD = ∠B + ∠C
⇒ 2∠EAC = ∠C + ∠C (∵ AE is the bisector of ∠CAE) (∵ ∠B = ∠C)
⇒ 2∠EAC = 2∠C
⇒ ∠EAC = ∠C
But there are alternate angles
∴ AE || BC
