Prove that the diagonals of the square bisect the interior angles.
You can easily prove that by using the triangles.
Do you have an online file? If you do, takre a screen shot

there is no answer choices
Could you guys guide me through each step?
sure

Good... this is a tag team combo now
Ok, we need to prove that, example, the triangle PRS is congruant to the tirangle PRQ. Then you can say, the corresponding angles are equals, therefore bisects

I need to number these steps clearly with statements and reasons
so for step 1...
statement
All of the angles are congruent 90 degree angles?
Reason: Given?
So let's go, two column proof; SR congruent to PQ - Definition of a square PS congruent to QR - Definition of a square PR congruant to PR - Reflexivity PSR congruent to PQR - By SSS Angle PRS congruent to PQR - Corresponding angles of two identical triangle are congruent Angle RPS congruent to PRQ - Corresponding angles of two identical triangle are congruent
And then you have to do the same thing for triangles SQR and SPQ.

So we got steps 1-6 down
