Hello student,
Please find the answer to your question below
GivenBO and CO are respectively the bisector of angle B and angle C of triangle ABC
AlsoAO meets BC at P As BO and CO are angular bisectors,the line AO which is extended to P to meet BC at P will also be similar to BO and CO
As The bisector of an angle of a triangle divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the adjacent sides.
(AB/AC)=(BP/PC)
