Q02. Bisect an angle
Construction
Draw an angle BAC
At point A draw a circle and cut line AB at P and AC at Q
AT point P draw a circle with radius r
At point Q draw a circle with same radius r
Two circles meet at R and S
Join A, R and S and extend to D
AD is angle bisector
Proof
PS = PQ
AP = AQ
AS is in common
Hence triangle APS is concurrent to AQS
Hence AD bisect angle BAC

Q03. Properties
1. Point on bisector has same distance to line AB and AC
At point D draw line perpendicular to AB at E
At point D draw line perpendicular to BF at F
Since ADE is concurrent to ADF
Hence DE = DF
