In this figure, as BC bisects /_ABQ, m/_ABC=m/_CBQ=x

Now according to alternate segment theorem (also known as the tangent-chord theorem) - in any circle, the angle between a chord and a tangent through one of the end points of the chord is equal to the angle in the alternate segment.

therefore m/_CBQ=m/_BAC=x

and in DeltaABC, m/_BAC=m/_ABC=x

as two angles of DeltaABC areequal, it is an isosceles trangle

and hence opposites are equal i.e. AC=BC.
