Question -

In the figure, it is given that RT = TS, ∠1 = 2∠2 and ∠4 = 2∠3. Prove that: ∆RBT = ∆SAT.



Answer -

Given : In the figure, RT = TS
∠1 = 2∠2 and ∠4 = 2∠3
To prove : ∆RBT ≅ ∆SAT
Proof : ∵ ∠1 = ∠4 (Vertically opposite angles)
But ∠1 = 2∠2 and 4 = 2∠3
∴ 2∠2 = 2∠3 ⇒ ∠2 = ∠3
∵ RT = ST (Given)
∴∠R = ∠S (Angles opposite to equal sides)
∴ ∠R – ∠2 = ∠S – ∠3
⇒ ∠TRB = ∠AST
Now in ∆RBT and ∆SAT
∠TRB = ∠SAT (prove)
RT = ST (Given)
∠T = ∠T (Common)
∴ ∆RBT ≅ ∆SAT (SAS axiom)
