5. |
Which statement can be used to show that if is a median of ? |
| |
|
 |
| |
|
A. |
The median of an isosceles triangle bisects the vertex angle. So, the segments opposite the angles are congruent. |
| |
|
B. |
and . Therefore, because corresponding parts of congruent angles are congruent. |
| |
|
C. |
because and are reflections of each other. |
| |
|
D. |
The median of an isosceles triangle is a perpendicular bisector of the base. So, by definition of bisector, . |
| |
|
Hint |

6. |
Complete the paragraph proof. If , and , then . |
| |
|
 |
| |
|
A. |
by SAS. So, because they are corresponding parts of congruent triangles. Because and , you know that is a median of , and that is a median of . Thus, by SAS. So, because they are corresponding parts of congruent triangles. |
| |
|
B. |
by SAS. So, because they are corresponding parts of congruent triangles. is an isosceles triangle because it has two congruent sides. So, because the base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent. |
| |
|
C. |
by SAS. So, because they are corresponding parts of congruent triangles. by the reflexive property. So, because the sides of both angles are congruent. |
| |
|
D. |
by SAS. So, because they are corresponding parts of congruent triangles. By angle addition, or . In , or . So by substitution, . So, by the property of equality. |
