Bisectors of angles A, B and C of a triangle ABC intersects its circumcircle at D, E and F respectively. Prove that angles of triangle DEF are 90° - A/2, 90° - B/2 and 90° - C/2. -Maths 9th

1 Answer

Answer :

We have ∠BED = ∠BAD   (Angles in the same segment) ⇒   ∠BED = 1/2∠A    ...(i) Also,  ∠BEF =  ∠BCF   (Angles in the same segment) ⇒  ∠BEF = 1/2∠C  ...(ii) From (i) and (ii)  ∠BED + ∠BEF = 1/2∠A + 1/2∠C  ∠DEF = 1/2(∠A + ∠C) ⇒   ∠DEF = 1/2(180° – ∠B)   (Since, ∠A + ∠B + ∠C =  180°) ⇒  ∠DEF = 90° - 1/2∠B
