Problem

In an isosceles triangle ABCABC with AB=AC=7 cmAB = AC = 7\,\text{cm}, the point DD lies on BCBC such that ∠BAD=∠CAD\angle BAD = \angle CAD. (i) Prove that the points A, B, CA,\,B,\,C and DD are concyclic. (ii) Show that BD=DCBD = DC. (iii) If BC=8 cmBC = 8\,\text{cm}, find the lengths of BDBD and DCDC. State the reasons used at each step.
