Will give medal and fan for help. Question below
Theorem: The segment joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half its length.
Which is the most logical order of statements and reasons for the proof? I, III, II, V, IV I, IV, III, II, V III, II, I, V, IV III, I, II, IV, V ^ These were the options given
I believe that the answer is C because - The coordinates of point D are (4, 5) and coordinates of point E are (5, 3), Length of segment DE is Square root of 5 and length of segment AC is 2 multiplied by the square root of 5, Segment DE is half the length of segment AC, Segment DE is half the length of segment AC, Slope of segment DE is -2 and slope of segment AC is -2, Segment DE is parallel to segment AC. ^ (The order of C) makes sense in how it is read
C was the right answer.
