AD is an altitude of an isosceles triangle ABC in which AB = AC. Show that (i) AD bisects BC (ii) AD bisects A. Q.2

It is given that AD is an altitude and AB = AC. The diagram is as follows:
(i) In ΔABD and ΔACD,
ADB = ADC = 90°
AB = AC (It is given in the question)
AD = AD (Common arm)
∴ ΔABD ΔACD by RHS congruence condition.
Now, by the rule of CPCT,
BD = CD.
So, AD bisects BC
(ii) Again, by the rule of CPCT, BAD = CAD
Hence, AD bisects A.
