Identify Given Information: Let's identify the given information and what we need to prove.Given:1. m/_DAC=m/_DBC (The measure of angle DAC is equal to the measure of angle DBC).2. AB bisects /_DAC (Line segment AB bisects angle DAC).3. AB bisects /_DBC (Line segment AB bisects angle DBC).We need to prove that m/_1=m/_2.
Angle Division by Line Segment: Since AB bisects ∠DAC, it divides angle DAC into two equal angles. Let's denote the measure of these two angles as m∠1. Therefore, we have:m∠DAC=2×m∠1.
Measure of Angles: Similarly, since ABˉ bisects /DBC, it divides angle DBC into two equal angles. Let's denote the measure of these two angles as m/2. Therefore, we have:m/DBC=2×m/2.
Substitution of Measures: From the given information, we know that m/DAC=m/DBC. By substituting the expressions from the previous steps, we get:2×m/1=2×m/2.
Final Measure Calculation: To find the measure of each angle, we can divide both sides of the equation by 2, which gives us:m/1=m/2.
