Triangle ABC is a right triangle. Point D is the midpoint of side AB and point E is the midpoint of side AC. The measure of angle ADE is 36°.
The flow chart with missing statements and reasons proves that the measure of angle ECB is 54°.
Which statement and reason can be used to fill in the numbered blank spaces? 1. Measure of angle AED is 36° 2. Base angle theorem 3. Corresponding angles are congruent 1. Measure of angle AED is 54° 2. Triangle Sum Theorem 3. Corresponding angle are congruent 1. Measure of angle AED is 54° 2. Base angle theorem 3. Alternate interior angles are congruent 1. Measure of angle AED is 54° 2. Triangle Sum Theorem 3. Alternate interior angles are congruent
I think its D

@Michele_Laino
If the answer is D., that means for reason 3. you are using "Alternate interior angles are congruent" Which angles in the figure are alternate interior angles?
@mathstudent55 woops I meant C
they're corresponding right?
and congruent
es. Since the segments are parallel, the angles are corresponding. That's why they are congruent. Answer is not D or C.
B?
