Question
In the given figure, if $\text{AB}=\text{AC}$ and $\angle\text{B}=\angle\text{C}.$ Prove that $\text{PQ}=\text{CP}.$

Answer
It is given that$\text{AB}=\text{AC},$ and $\angle\text{B}=\angle\text{C}$
We have to prove that $\text{BQ}=\text{CP}$ We basically will prove $\triangle\text{ABQ}\cong\triangle\text{ACP}$ to show $\text{BQ}=\text{CP}$ In $\triangle\text{ABQ}$ and $\triangle\text{ACP}$$\angle\text{B}=\angle\text{C}$ (Given)
$\text{AB}=\text{AC}$ (Given)
And $\angle\text{A}$ is common in both the triangles So all the properties of congruence are satisfied So $\triangle\text{ABQ}\cong\triangle\text{ACP}$ Hence $\text{BQ}=\text{CP}$ Proved.
