View full question & answer→Giva two lines L and M intersect at the point O and P is a point on a line n passing through O such that P is equidistant from L and M, i.e., PQ = PR,

To prove N is the bisector of the angle formed by L and M i.e., n is the bisector of $\angle\text{QOR},$
Proof In $\triangle\text{OQP}\text{ and }\triangle\text{ORP} $,
$\angle\text{PQO}=\angle\text{PRO}=\text{90}^0$
[since,P in equidistant from L and M, so PQ and PR should be perpendicular to lines L and M respectively]
OP = OP [commo side]
P = PR [given]
$\therefore\triangle\text{OQP}\cong\triangle\text{ORP}$ [by RHS congruence rule]
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{POQ}=\angle\text{POR}$ [by CPCT]
Hence,n is the bisector of $\angle\text{QOR}.$Hence proved.
