1.Theorem- Angles opposite to equal sides of an isoceles
triangles are equal.
2. Inequalities of a triangle
Statement- In any triangle the side of opposite to the
greater angle is longer.
5. 1. ANGLES OPPOSITE TO EQUAL SIDES OF AN ISOCELES
TRIANGLE ARE EQUAL.
ABC is a isosceles triangle
In which AB=AC
To prove- ๐ต = ๐ถ
Let us draw a bisector of ๐ด and
let D be the point of
intersection of this bisector
of ๐ด = ๐ต๐ถ
From โBAD and โCAD
AB=AC
๐ต๐ด๐ท = ๐ถ๐ด๐ท
6. AD=AD
โด โ๐ต๐ด๐ท โ โ๐ถ๐ด๐ท
SAS rule- Two triangles are congruent if
two sides and the sssincluded angle of
an triangle are equal to the two sides and
the included angle of the other.
So, ๐ด๐ต๐ท = ๐ด๐ถ๐ท
since they are corresponding angles of
congruent triangles.
So, ๐ต = ๐ถ

7. INEQUALITIES IN A TRIANGLE
Theorem- In any triangle the side
opposite to the larger angle is
longer.
To prove- we have to consider a
scalene triangle
Let me consider a โABC whose
sides are AB=2 cm BC=3 cm
CA=4 cm
We have to find AB+BC BC+AC
AC+AB
A triangle in which all sides are of
different lengths.
8. After finding this we will observe that,
AB + BC > ๐ด๐ถ
BC + AC > ๐ด๐ต
๐ด๐ถ + ๐ด๐ต > ๐ต๐ถ
โด ๐ด๐ต + ๐ต๐ถ = 2 + 3 = 5 ๐๐ > 4 ๐๐ = ๐ด๐ถ
๐ต๐ถ + ๐ด๐ถ = 3 + 4 = 7 ๐๐ > 2 ๐๐ = ๐ด๐ต
๐ด๐ถ + ๐ด๐ต = 4 + 2 = 6 ๐๐ > 3 ๐๐ = ๐ต๐ถ
Hence the proof 3 cm CB

10. 1.In โ๐ด๐ต๐ถ the bisector AB of ๐ด is perpendicular to side BC.
Showthat AB=AC and โ๐ด๐ต๐ถ is isosceles.
In โ๐ด๐ต๐ท and โ๐ด๐ถ๐ท
๐ต๐ด๐ท = ๐ถ๐ด๐ท
๐ด๐ท = ๐ด๐ท
๐ด๐ท๐ต = ๐ด๐ท๐ถ = 90ยฐ
SO, โ๐ด๐ต๐ท โ โ๐ด๐ถ๐ท
โด ๐ด๐ต = ๐ด๐ถ
โ๐ด๐ต๐ถ is an isosceles triangle
