ABC is an isosceles right triangle.
BD is the median.
Calculate the size of angle .
The solution to find can be determined by understanding the properties of the isosceles right triangle and the median.
Given triangle is an isosceles right triangle with and , BD, being the median from B to the hypotenuse AC, causes A and C to be equally distant from D. Consequently, triangle ABD is congruent to triangle BDC.
In this configuration, triangle ABD forms half of the isosceles right triangle. Due to symmetry and the properties of medians in such triangles, we have two equal angles at ADB and BDC.
Since and are congruent under isosceles conditions, we find that angle , like , must also be .
Therefore, the solution to is degrees.
