Answer:

DB = CA (Proved)

Explanation:

Statement 1.

∠D = ∠C, M is the midpoint of DC and ∠1 = ∠2

Reason 1.

Given

Statement 2.

Between Δ DBM and Δ CAM,

(i) DM = CM,

(ii) ∠D = ∠C and

(iii) ∠DMB = ∠CMA

Reason 2.

(i) given

(ii) given and

(iii) ∠ DMB = ∠1 + ∠AMB and ∠CMA = ∠2 + ∠AMB

Since ∠1 = ∠2, so, ∠DMB = ∠CMA.

Statement 3.

Δ DBM ≅ Δ CAM

Reason 3.

By angle-side-angle rule.

Statement 4.

DB = CA

Reason 4.

Corresponding sides of two congruent triangles. (Answer)
