To prove that the perpendiculars from the vertices B and C to their opposite sides are equal in an isosceles triangle ABC where AB = AC, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Given Information**: We have triangle ABC where AB = AC. This means that triangle ABC is isosceles with the equal sides being AB and AC. 2. **Draw Perpendiculars**: ...
