Geometry Help please!
ok
I'm in geometry, I can try to help
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 following flowchart 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.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 1.Measure of angle AED is 54° 2.Triangle Sum Theorem 3.Corresponding angle are congruent
wow
yeah thats a lot
c?
the reason for 3.) is definitely corresponding angles (of a transversal crossing 2 parallel lines)

that means its either choice a or d
we know m <AED is 54 that let's us choose between choice a and choice d
would it be option a?
choice a says <AED is 36 but we know that is not correct.
so then that leaves d as the final correct answer.
yes. and the reason for 2. in choice d makes sense (at least it does to me)
so I would pick d)
