Answer:

Since their corresponding angles are congruent and the corresponding sides are in proportion

Explanation:

For ABD,

Sin (B) = (AD ÷ AB) =1

∴ AD = AB

and if AD = AB

⇒ AD = AC (since AD 1 CB).

From triangle ACD,

Sin(C) = (AD ÷ AC)

Since AD = AC , Hence Sin (B) = Sin (C) = 1

Also From definition of similar triangles ABD and ACD are Similar (i.e their corresponding angles are congruent and the corresponding sides are in proportion)
