3 Equal Lines and Angles in Triangle

CAT Geometry Concept – Triangle Medians & Angle

📐 Concept: 3 Equal Lines and Angles in Triangle

Let triangle ABC have point D as a point on BC.

Now, if BD=AD=AC, then triangle has special symmetry.

From the triangle:

  • AD=BD=DC implies triangle is divided into isosceles components
  • Use of angle algebra can help break this down

🧪 CAT 2006 Question on Geometry

Q. In triangle ABC, point D is a point on BC. If BD=AD=AC and DAC=96, then what is C?

🔽 Show Answer & Step-by-Step Solution

Given:

  • AD=AC
  • D is midpoint of BC
  • DAC=96

Since AD=AC, triangle ADC is isosceles.

Let DBC=x, then DAC=x and the external angle becomes:

DAC+CAB=962x=96x=32

Now, use this to find angle C=2x=64
