Question

Create a two-column proof: Given: EAB and DCB are two right triangles. The figure has BED≅ BDE. Point B is the midpoint of segment AC. Prove: EAB≅ DCB

Answer 1

The two-column proof that shows that ΔEAB ≅ ΔDCB by SAS congruence theorem is explained below.

What is the the SAS Congruence Theorem?

The Side-angle-side congruence theorem (SAS) that states that two triangles that are have two pairs of corresponding congruent sides and a pair of included corresponding congruent angles are congruent to each other.

What is an Isosceles Triangle?

Any triangle with two equal base angles is referred to as an isosceles triangle, The sides opposite these base angles are also congruent to each other.

Given the diagram below, the proof is expressed as follows:

Statement 1: ΔEAB and ΔDCB are two right triangles

Reason 1: Given

Statement 2: ∠EAB  ≅ DCB

Reason 2: Right angles

Statement 3: ∠BED ≅ BDE

Reason 3: Given

Statement 4: ΔBED is an isosceles triangle

Reason 4: Definition of isosceles triangle

Statement 5: BE ≅ BD

Reason 5:  Definition of isosceles triangle

Statement 6: ΔEAB ≅ ΔDCB

Reason 6: SAS
