Question 1148981: For indirect proofs, how can I prove that point O lies on line AD with the givens: Circle O with AB congruent to AC, and line AD is the median to BC with the usage of equidistance theorems? I realized that triangle ADB and ABC are congruent by the SSS postulate, that I may need to draw lines OB and OC, and AD would be a perpendicular bisector of BC. However, I am not certain on how I can use this or if my assumptions are even accurate.
