To prove that triangle \( \Delta BPQ \) is an isosceles triangle, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Given Information We are given that \( P \) is a point on the bisector of angle \( ABC \) (which is \( BP \)). A line through \( P \) is drawn parallel to \( BA \) and meets \( BC \) at point \( Q \). ### Step 2: Use the Property of Parallel Lines Since \( PQ \) is parallel to \( AB \), we can use the properties of alternate interior angles. The line \( BP \) acts as a transversal to the parallel lines \( PQ \) and \( AB \). ...
