from the given statement, you can only directly prove that the segment bisected has congruent parts, by Definition of Bisecting therefore |dw:1385942200582:dw|

not quite :) |dw:1385942721819:dw|

"Triangles BCP and CDP are congruent."?

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

from the given statement, you can only directly prove that the segment bisected makes two congruent parts so triangles are not involved... |dw:1385942893822:dw|
