AD is the median of Triangle ABC on base BC. If angleADC=90degree prove that Triangle ABC is isosceles.

In ΔADB and ΔADC

BD =CD (Median AD bisects BC)

∠ADB = ∠ADC = 900

AD = AD (Common side)

∴ΔADB ΔADC (Using SAS rule).

⇒AB = AC

Therefore, ΔABC is isosceles.

in / abd and / adc

bd=dc [ad is the median]

/_adb=/_adb [each 90]

ad=ad [common]

so /abd=~/adc[asa]

ab=ac [by cpct]
