We are given that m∠AEB = 45° and ∠AEC is a right angle. The measure of ∠AEC is 90° by the definition of a right angle. Applying
the gives m∠AEB + m∠BEC = m∠AEC. Applying the substitution property gives 45° + m∠BEC = 90°. The subtraction property can be used to find m∠BEC = 45°, so ∠BEC ≅ ∠AEB because they have the same measure. Since divides ∠AEC into two congruent angles, it is the angle bisector.

Answer:
The proof is given below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given m∠AEB = 45° and ∠AEC is a right angle. we have to prove that EB divides ∠AEC into two congruent angles, it is the angle bisector.
Given ∠AEC=90° (Given)
∠AEC=∠AEB+∠BEC
⇒ 90° = 45° +∠BEC (Substitution Property)
By subtraction property of equality
⇒ ∠BEC = 90° - 45° = 45°
Hence, both angles becomes equal gives ∠AEB≅∠BEC
Since EB divides ∠AEC into two congruent angles, ∴ EB is the angle bisector.

Step-by-step explanation:
In order to write the series using the summation notation, first we need to find the nth term of the sequence formed. The sequence generated by the series is an arithmetic sequence as shown;
4, 8, 12, 16, 20...80
The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as Tn = a +(n-1)d
a is the first term = 4
d is the common difference = 21-8 = 8-4 = 4
n is the number of terms
On substituting, Tn = 4+(n-1)4
Tn = 4+4n-4
Tn = 4n
The nth term of the series is 4n.
Since the last term is 80, L = 4n
80 = 4n
n = 80/4
n = 20
This shows that the total number of terms in the sequence is 20
According to the series given 4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80 , we are to take the sum of the first 20terms of the sequence. Using summation notation;
4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80 =
