Question is in the picture.. YAh! IT'S A HARD ONE!

OpenStudy (phi):

I must say, this "proof" has a problem with it. It states: "construct a perpendicular bisector" But you can only guarantee being able to either construct a bisector or construct a perpendicular. Only under special circumstances can you construct a single line segment that is both. So the fact that they are assuming you can construct a perpendicular bisector is assuming what we want to prove....

so what do you think it is? Because I have no idea.

OpenStudy (phi):

Are the last 2 choices really the same?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it would seem so lol.

OpenStudy (phi):

The choice they label "congruent parts of congruent triangles are congruent" is close to silly. They perhaps mean "corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent" This looks like a really bad question.

OpenStudy (phi):

@FoolForMath Any thoughts on this question?
