Part 4· 3 steps
Given:
Determine the length of .
Identify the given ratios.
Since , is the midpoint of . Thus, .
Since , let . Then and .
The length of .
So, .Apply Menelaus' Theorem.
Consider and the transversal line . The line intersects side at , side at , and the extension of side at .
According to Menelaus' Theorem:Substitute the known ratios and solve for .
Substitute the values from Step 1 into the equation:
This implies .
We are given that .
Also, .
Substitute into the equation for :The length of is .
Part 5
Given:
- is a parallelogram.
- at .
- at .
Part 1
Prove that .
Identify equal sides and angles.
Since is a parallelogram, its opposite sides are equal and parallel.
- (Opposite sides of parallelogram ).
- (Opposite sides of parallelogram ). Since and is a transversal, the alternate interior angles are equal:
- . We are given that and .
- and .
Apply the AAS congruence criterion.
In and :
- (Angle)
- (Angle, alternate interior angles)
- (Side, opposite sides of parallelogram) By the Angle-Angle-Side (AAS) congruence criterion, .
Part 2
Hence, prove that is also a parallelogram.
Use the results from Part 1.
Since , their corresponding parts are equal (CPCTC).
- .
Establish parallelism.
We are given that and .
If two lines are perpendicular to the same line, then they are parallel to each other.
Therefore, .Conclude that is a parallelogram.
In quadrilateral , we have shown that one pair of opposite sides ( and ) are both equal in length () and parallel ().
A quadrilateral with one pair of opposite sides that are both parallel and equal in length is a parallelogram.
Therefore, .
