Question -

If two straightlines intersect each other, prove that the ray opposite to the bisector of oneof the angles thus formed bisects the vertically opposite angle.



Answer -

Given AB and CD are straight lines which intersect at O.

OP is the bisector of ∠ AOC.

To Prove : OQ is the bisector of ∠BOD

Proof :

AB, CD and PQ are straight lines which intersect in O.

Vertically opposite angles: ∠ AOP = ∠ BOQ

Vertically opposite angles: ∠ COP = ∠ DOQ

OP is the bisector of ∠ AOC : ∠ AOP= ∠ COP

Therefore,  ∠BOQ = ∠ DOQ

Hence, OQ is the bisector of ∠BOD.
