Given, In {tex}\triangle{/tex}ABC,

{tex}\angle{/tex}B = 2{tex}\angle{/tex}C .......(1)

 AD = CD ........(2)

AD bisects {tex}\angle{/tex}BAC.

So, {tex}\angle BAD = \angle DAC{/tex} =  {tex}\frac {1} {2}{/tex}{tex}\angle A{/tex}.....(3)

Since AD = CD ,hence in {tex}\triangle ADC{/tex} ;
 {tex}\angle{/tex}C = {tex}\angle{/tex}DAC.......(4) [angles opposite to equal sides are equal]
But from (1), 

 {tex}\angle{/tex}B  = 2{tex}\angle{/tex}C

 {tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} {tex}\angle{/tex}B = 2 {tex}\angle{/tex}DAC   [ from (4) ]
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} {tex}\angle{/tex}B = {tex}\angle{/tex}A   [ from (3) ] ..........(5)

Clearly , from (1) & (5) ;

 {tex}\angle A =\angle B =2 \angle C{/tex}.......(6)


Now, {tex}\angle{/tex}A + {tex}\angle{/tex}B + {tex}\angle{/tex}C = 180° [Angle Sum Property of triangle]
 {tex}\Rightarrow \angle A + \angle A + \frac{\angle A}{2} = 180°{/tex}
 {tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} {tex}\frac{4\angle A + \angle A}{2} =180°{/tex} 
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex}{tex}\frac{5\angle A}{2} = 180°{/tex} {tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} {tex}\angle A{/tex}{tex}\frac{180^o \times 2}{5}{/tex}
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex}{tex}\angle{/tex}A = 72o {tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} {tex}\angle{/tex}BAC = 72o
