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.
