A conjecture and the two-column proof used to prove the conjecture are shown. Given: segment A B is congruent to segment B D, se
gment B D is congruent to segment C E, and segment C E is congruent to segment A C. Prove: triangle A B C is an isosceles triangle. Segment A D with endpoints D and A moving from left to right. Segment A D is diagonally down to the left from point A. B is the midpoint of segment A D. Segment A E shares endpoint at point A with segment A D. Segment A E is diagonally down to the right from point A. C is the midpoint of segment A E. Segment B C is horizontal between segment A D and segment A E. Drag an expression or phrase to each box to complete the proof. Statement Reason 1. AB¯¯¯¯¯≅BD¯¯¯¯¯ Given 2. BD¯¯¯¯¯≅CE¯¯¯¯¯ Given 3. Transitive Property of Congruence 4. Given 5. AB¯¯¯¯¯≅AC¯¯¯¯¯ 6. △ABC is an isosceles triangle.
