Answer»

ɢɪᴠᴇɴ :-

An equilateral triangle ∆ABC .

ᴛᴏ ᴘʀᴏᴠᴇ :-

An equilateral triangle is equiangular .

ᴄᴏɴsᴛʀᴜᴄᴛɪᴏɴ:-

From vertex A drop a perpendicular on side BC . Mark it as point M .

From vertex A drop a perpendicular on side BC and mark it as point N .

ᴘʀᴏᴏғ :-

Firstly we know that in an equilateral triangle perpendicular bisector , altitude and median all concide with each other . Also they are equal for each of the vertices .

Now we are required to PROVE that ∠ A = ∠ B = ∠ C , that is all angles are equal and each equals to 60°.

So , by construction we can SAY that ∠ AMC = ∠BMC = 90° and AM = BM since CM is perpendicular bisector .

\underline{\textsf{\textbf{\green{\orange{$\mapsto$} In\:$\triangle$\:AMC \:and\:$\triangle$\:BMC}}}}

\tt{\blue\qquad\qquad\pink{\bullet}\:AM=BM(By\: Construction)}

\tt{\blue\qquad\qquad\pink{\bullet}\:CM=CM(Common)}

\tt{\blue\qquad\qquad\pink{\bullet}\:\angle AMC=\angle BMC (By\: Construction)}

\sf \therefore By \:SAS\: congruence\: condition,\\\sf \qquad\red{\triangle AMC\cong \triangle BMC}

Therefore by corresponding parts of congruent triangles we can say that

\sf \blue{AC = BC}

\sf\blue {\angle ACM = \angle BCM}

\sf\blue {\angle CAM= \angle CBM}

SIMILARLY we can prove that ∆ BNA \congCNA .

Therefore by corresponding parts of congruent triangles we can say that

\sf \blue{ AB = AC}

\sf\blue {\angle ABN = \angle ACN}

\sf\blue {\angle BAN= \angle CAN}

From all these we can conclude that

\qquad\qquad\bf{\orange{\green{\bullet}\:\angle ABC=\angle ACB=\angle BAC}}

\boxed{\purple{\sf\orange{\leadsto}\:Hence\:an\: equilateral\: triangle\:is\: equiangular.}}
