- Step 1: Since AB = AC, triangle ABC is isosceles; base BC is opposite the equal sides.
- Step 2: Drop perpendicular BD from B to AC; in isosceles triangles, altitudes from the vertex to the base also bisect the base and the vertex angle.
- Step 3: Conclude BD bisects angle B (and also bisects AC). QED.
How to use this workbook effectively
- Work through concept reviews before attempting problem sets.
- Try each problem unaided for at least 10 minutes; use hints only if stuck.
- After reading a worked solution, rework the problem from scratch without looking.
- Time yourself on mixed sets to build speed for exams.
Benefits for students
- Builds deep procedural fluency and conceptual understanding.
- Bridges classroom learning and contest-style problem solving.
- Teaches clear reasoning and organized write-ups—skills useful beyond geometry.
