((CD)/(BC))=((sin β)/(sin ∠BDC))  ((DA)/(BA))=((sin β)/(sin ∠BDA))=((sin β)/(sin ∠BDC))=((CD)/(BC))  DA=CD as given  ⇒BC=BA  ⇒BC=BA=CA  ⇒ΔABC is equilateral

The length of the median from the   vertex A equal to m_a = (1/2)(√(2(b^2 +c^2 )−a^2 ))  The length of the bisector of the angle  ABC^(�)  equal to l_b =(√(ac−((b^2 ac)/((a+c)^2 ))))  The length of the altitude from the  vertex C equal to h_C =(2/c)(√(p(p−a)(p−b)(p−c)))  From the hypothesis we get  m_a =l_b =h_c ⇔(1/2)(√(2(b^2 +c^2 )−a^2 )) =  (√(ac))((√(1−(b^2 /((a+c)^2 )))) )=(2/c)(√(p(p−a)(p−b)(p−c)))

You only need  give c one some value   e.x,c=6 and solve equation to find a,b  It can have some  of triangles  satisfying that conditions

From the hypothesis AB=AC we infer  the triangle ABC is isosceles at the   vertex A.From the hypothesis the bisector   of the angle B^(�)  is also the median we   infer the triangle ABC is isosceles at  the vertex B⇒BA=BC.Therefore we  have AB=AC=BC=1  (In course of secondary school level  proved the result  that:if one triangle  has the bisector belong to any side  that  is also the median(or altitude)  then that triangle is isosceles)

Why did you change the solution for  No. 2 number theory? What′s wrong  with the first? We weren′t asked to  find values for x,y and z.

x,y,z are natural numbers. They can′t  be 0. I think your first solution is  correct. Please send it again.
