To prove that the perpendiculars from vertices B and C to their opposite sides are equal in the isosceles triangle ABC (where AB = AC), we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Triangle**: Let triangle ABC be an isosceles triangle with AB = AC. 2. **Draw Perpendiculars**: Draw perpendiculars from points B and C to the opposite sides. Let BD be the perpendicular from B to AC and CE be the perpendicular from C to AB. ...
