In , a line XY parallel to BC cuts AB at X and AC at Y. If BY bisects, then

A. BC =CY


B. BC = BY


C. BC CY


D. BC BY


Given in ΔABC, XY || BC and BY is a bisector of XYC.



Since XY || BC,


YBC = BYC [alternate angles]


Now, in Δ BYC, two angles are equal.


Hence, two corresponding sides will be equal.


BC = CY
