- A, and
- B, which is already
- C, and BE =
- D, and because triangle is isosceles
Step-by-Step Solution
In triangle the segment is parallel to the side , so BPT gives . Next, angle equals angle (corresponding angles) and angle equals angle (alternate angles); since bisects angle A these two are equal, so triangle is isosceles with . Substituting yields . The other options pair the wrong segments or invent equalities such as that the construction does not give.
Answer: D) , and because triangle is isosceles
