Answer: 1. Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) Postulate

2. Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (CPCTC)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : ABC is a triangle,

In which, ∠BAC ≅ ∠BCA

To prove : Δ ABC is an isosceles triangle,

Proof:

Construct a perpendicular bisector from point B to Line segment AC,

Label the point of intersection between this perpendicular bisector and Line segment AC as point D

∠BAC ≅ ∠BCA                   ( Given )

Since, ∠BDA ≅ ∠BDC       ( Right angles )

AD ≅ DC               (By the definition of a perpendicular bisector. )

Thus, By ASA postulate of congruence,

Δ BAD ≅ Δ BCD

⇒ AB ≅ BC ( By CPCTC )

⇒ ΔABC is isosceles ( by definition of an isosceles triangle )
