In the figure, given that:

RT = TS (i)

∠1 = 2∠2 (ii)

And,

∠4 = 2∠3 (iii)

To prove: ΔRBT ≅ ΔSAT

Let the point of intersection of RB and SA be denoted by O.

Since, RB and SA intersect at O.

∠AOR = ∠BOS (Vertically opposite angle)

∠1 = ∠4

2∠2 = 2∠3 [From (ii) and (iii)]

∠2 = ∠3 (iv)

Now, we have in ΔTRS

RT = TS

ΔTRS is an isosceles triangle

Therefore, ∠TRS = ∠TSI (v)

But, we have

∠TRS = ∠TRB + ∠2 (vi)

∠TSR = ∠TSA + ∠3 (vii)

Putting (vi) and (vii) in (v), we get

∠TRB + ∠2 = ∠TSA + ∠3

∠TRB = ∠TSA [From (iv)]

Now, in ΔRBT and ΔSAT

RT = ST From (i)

∠TRB = ∠TSA From (iv)

∠RTB = ∠STA (Common angle)

By ASA theorem,

ΔRBT ≅ ΔSAT
