To prove that \( BC = 2 \cdot AD \) in triangle \( ABC \) where \( AB = AC \) and \( \angle A = 90^\circ \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the triangle configuration Since \( ABC \) is a right triangle with \( AB = AC \), it is an isosceles right triangle. This means that \( \angle B = \angle C = 45^\circ \). ### Step 2: Identify the angle bisector Let \( AD \) be the angle bisector of \( \angle A \). Since \( \angle A = 90^\circ \), the angle bisector \( AD \) divides \( \angle A \) into two equal angles: \[ ...
