proofs and theorems with choices
@563blackghost
there is one more choice and its the polygon similarity postulate
@AngeI
Oh, trust me you dont want my help on this. I stuck at this
@Vocaloid
1 is already given in the problem, so Given 2. is a result of the midpoint definition given in #1, so definition of midpoint 3. is a result of segments MK = JK, etc. already defined in #2 so segment congruence postulate
4 is stating that MJ is composed of MK + MJ and the same thing for the other side, so segment addition postulate 5/6 given 7 is stating that <J = <J and if a statement says that something is congruent to itself that's the reflexive congruent property 8. I have no idea what this is trying to say (SAS theorem?)
i was thinking seven was reflexive prpty
i will take a better screen shot
and there is an extra choice "polygon similarity postulate"
is it 9
9 is a result of the similarity between the top and entire triangles (polygon similarity?) 10 is taking the result from part 6 and subbing that into part 9, so substitution property of equality 11. we multiplied both sides by KL to get this, multiplication property of equality
very much appreciated !
