1. Given Information and Assumptions:
- In triangle , the difference between angles and is .
- is the angle bisector of .
- The bisector of the exterior angle at intersects at point .
2. Determine Angles:
- Let .
- Since , we have .
- The sum of angles in triangle is , so:
3. **Angle Bisector :**
- The angle bisector divides into two equal parts:
4. **Angles in Triangle :**
- In triangle , we need to find :
5. **Perpendicularity of and :**
- It is known that the interior angle bisector is perpendicular to the exterior angle bisector of the same angle in a triangle. Therefore, .
6. **Isosceles Right Triangle :**
- Since and , triangle is an isosceles right triangle with .
- In an isosceles right triangle, the legs are equal, so .
