Answer:

BD = 2

Explanation:

here's your solution

==> in ∆ABC and ∆ ABD

==> angle C = angle D. [ = to 90° ]

==> AB is common side

==> angle BAC = angle BAD. [ BA is angle bisector]

==> hence both traingle are congruent

==> so, BD = BC. [ by C.P.C.T ]

==> BC = 2. [ Given ]

==> BD = 2

hope it helps
