Prove that ac2 = ap2 + 2(1+2)bp2, Mathematics

Assignment Help:

ABC is a right-angled isosceles triangle, right-angled at B. AP, the bisector of ∠BAC, intersects BC at P. Prove that AC2 = AP2 + 2(1+√2)BP2

Ans:    AC = √2AB (Since AB = BC)

AB/AC = BP/CP (Bisector Theorem)

⇒ CP = √2 BP

AC2 - AP2 = AC2 - (AB2 + BP2)

= AC2 - AB2 - BP2

= BC2 - BP2

= (BP + PC)2 - BP2

= (BP + √2BP)2 - BP2

= 2BP2 + 2√2  BP2

= 2 ( √2 +1) BP2 ⇒ AC2 = AP2 + 2(1+√2)BP2
