In the given figure, ΔABD is an isosceles triangle with AB=AD. A median is drawn from A to side BD at C. Which of the following option(s) is/are correct?
In The Given Figure, ΔABD is An Isosceles Triangle With ...


Options:
A .   AC is perpendicular to BD
B .   BAC=DAC
C .   ΔABCΔADC
D .   Area of ΔABD=12×Area of ΔABC
Answer: Option A
:
A, B, C, and D

Consider ΔABC and ΔADC,AC=AC (Common side of both triangles)AB=AD (Sides of isosceles triangle)BC=CD (Median divides a side in two equal parts)ΔABCΔADC  (by SSS congruence criterion) So the option "ΔABCΔADC" is correct.ACB=ACD  (CPCT)But they are supplementary angles. So, ACB+ACD=180ACB=ACD=90AC is perpendicular to BD and the hence option "AC is perpendicular to BD"  is correct. Also, BAC=DAC (corresponding angles of congruent triangles)Hence, the option"BAC=DAC" is also correct.Also, area of ΔABC=area of ΔADC=12(area of ΔABD).ΔABCΔADC ar(ΔABC)=ar(ΔADC)Hence, the option "Area of ΔABD=12×Area of ΔABC"is also correct.
