Given— PQ is perpendicular bisector of side AB of the triangle ABC.    Prove— Q is equidistant from A and B. Solution:    Construction: Join AQ Proof: In ∆AQP and ∆BQP, AP = BP (given) ∠QPA = ∠QPB (Each = 90 ) PQ = PQ (Common) By Side-Angle-Side criterian of congruence, we have ∆AQP ≅ ∆BQP (SAS postulate) The corresponding parts of the triangle are congruent ∴ AQ = BQ (CPCT) Hence Q is equidistant from A and B. Question 2. Given— CP is bisector of angle C of ∆ ABC.    Prove— P is equidistant from AC and BC. Solution: Question 3. Given— AX bisects angle BAG and PQ is perpendicular bisecto...
