A triangle is a three-edged polygon with three vertices. It is a fundamental form in geometry. An isosceles triangle is one with two equal-length sides.

What is a triangle?

A triangle is a three-edged polygon with three vertices. It is a fundamental form in geometry. The sum of all the angle of a triangle is always equal to 180°.

In ΔBAD and ΔBDC,

m∠ADB = m∠CDB {Given}

BD = BD {Common side in two triangles}

AD ≅ DC {Given}

Using the ASA postulate the two triangles are congruent. Therefore,

m∠BAD= m∠BCD.........equation 1

m∠ABD= m∠CBD

In ΔADC, AD ≅ DC {Given}, therefore, the triangle is an isosceles triangle. Thus,

m∠DAE = m∠DCE.......equation 2

Adding two of the equation 1 and 2,

m∠BAD + m∠DAE = m∠DCE + m∠BCD

∠BAC = ∠BCA

Since in ΔABC, ∠BAC = ∠BCA therefore, the triangle is an isosceles triangle, thus, AB = BC,

BE is the common side between ΔAEB and ΔCEB

Also, m∠ABD= m∠CBD

Therefore, ΔAEB ≅ ΔCEB

Now as ΔAEB ≅ ΔCEB, therefore, AE=EC,

Thus, BE is the median of the isosceles triangle ABC, and for an isosceles triangle, the median opposite to the non-common sides is the perpendicular bisector to the opposite side.

Hence, BD⊥AC.
