Reason 2 is correct.

563blackghost:

Reason 3 is incorrect, let me write an explanation. One sec.

563blackghost:

Since we are told that \(\bf{\overline{\rm PQ}}\) bisects PERPENDICULARLY this would mean that it would create TWO right angles on either side. Meaning for Reason 3 it would be \(\bf{definition~of~Perpendicular}\).

563blackghost:

Since we are told that \(\bf{\angle AXP}\) and \(\bf{\angle AXQ}\) are `right angles` this would mean that they are `congruent` to each other. So for statement 4 it would be \(\large\bf{\angle AXP \cong \angle AXQ}\).

PandaSurvive:

oh that makes sense

563blackghost:

We prove our triangle based on how we proved sides and angles `in order`. We first identified that \(\large\bf{\overline {\rm PX} \cong \overline {\rm QX}}\) being sides, we then identified that \(\large{\angle AXP \cong AXQ}\) being sides, and last we identified by reflexive that \(\large\bf{\overline {\rm AX} \cong \overline {\rm AX}}\) being a side. Side-angle-Side is the \(\large\bf{SAS~Congruence~Postulate}\).

563blackghost:

Reason 7 would be \(\large\bf{CPCTC}\) since we proved the triangle, thus making \(\large\bf{\overline {\rm AP} \cong \overline {\rm AQ}}\) being congruent to each other.

Thank you BlackGhost cx
