Bob will rent a car for the weekend. He can choose one of two plans. The first plan has an initial fee of $53.96 and costs an additional $0.14 per mile driven. The second plan has an initial fee of $43.96 and costs an additional $0.19 per mile driven. How many miles would Bob need to drive for the two plans to cost the same?

Here is their argument. given the obtuse angle x, we make a quadrilateral abcd with ∠dab = x, and ∠abc = 90◦, and ad = bc. say the perpendicular bisector to dc meets the perpendicular bisector to ab at p. then pa = pb and pc = pd. so the triangles pad and pbc have equal sides and are congruent. thus ∠pad = ∠pbc. but pab is isosceles, hence ∠pab = ∠pba. subtracting, gives x = ∠pad−∠pab = ∠pbc −∠pba = 90◦. this is a preposterous conclusion – just where is the mistake in the "proof" and why does the argument break down there?
