Question 131

The diagonals AC and BD of a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD intersect each other at the point P. Then, it is always true that

Solution

As we know that a cyclic quadrilateral can be inscribed into a circle, Hence in triangle APB and in triangle CPD.

$$\angle PAB = \angle PDC$$ (same sector angles)

$$\angle PCD = \angle PBA$$ (same sector angles)

Hence third angle will also be equal and they will be similar triangles.

So $$\frac{AP}{PD} = \frac{BP}{PC}$$
