Given: AE ≅ CE ; DE ≅ BE Prove: ABCD is a parallelogram. Parallelogram A B C D is shown. Diagonals are drawn from point A to poi

nt C and from point D to point B and intersect at point E. Line segments A E and E C are congruent. Line segments D E and E B are congruent. We have that AB || DC. By a similar argument used to prove that △AEB ≅ △CED, we can show that △ ≅ △CEB by. So, ∠CAD ≅ ∠ by CPCTC. Therefore, AD || BC by the converse of the theorem. Since both pair of opposite sides are parallel, quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram.

Answer:

The proof is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a parallelogram ABCD. Diagonals AC and BD intersect at E. We have to prove that AE is congruent to CE and BE is congruent to DE i.e diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

In ΔACD and ΔBEC

AD=BC              (∵Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal)

∠DAC=∠BCE       (∵Alternate angles)

∠ADC=∠CBE        (∵Alternate angles)

By ASA rule, ΔACD≅ΔBEC

By CPCT(Corresponding Parts of Congruent triangles)

AE=EC and DE=EB

Hence, AE is conruent to CE and BE is congruent to DE

Literally just plug it in

42 -20 -42 = 0

-20 = 0

Not a solution.
