In the figure given above, \(PO\) is the angle bisector of \(\angle RPQ\), and \(PR = PQ\). Prove that \(\triangle PRO \cong \triangle PQO\).
 
Proof :
 
let us consider the triangles \(RPO\) and \(OPQ\)
 
\(PR=\) 
 
\(\angle RPO = \angle\)
 
\(PO=\)   
 
Thus by congruence criterion, the triangles \(RPO\) and \(OPQ\) are congruent to each other.
 
That is, \(\triangle RPO \cong \triangle OPQ\).
