State and prove the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem.
The correct answer is: Hence proved.
Answer:
- To prove:
- Perpendicular Bisector Theorem:
- Proof:
- Statement:
- According to perpendicular bisector theorem, in the triangle, any point on perpendicular bisector is at equal distance from both end points of the line segment on which it is drawn.
- Step 1:
Let consider given figure,
Let arbitrary point C on perpendicular bisector.
In which,
CD is perpendicular bisector on AB.
Hence,
AD = DB
CD = CD (common)
So, according to SAS rule
Hence,
CA = CB
So, any point on perpendicular bisector is at equal distance from end points of line segment.
Hence proved.
