Answer
Shown:
AC = BD and AD = BC from the given figure
Step-by-step solution
5 stepsIdentify the given information from the figure.
From the figure, we can observe:
- (indicated by the single tick marks on segments and ).
- (indicated by the double tick marks on segments and ).
- and are vertically opposite angles.
Prove the congruence of and .
Consider and :
- (Given from the figure)
- (Vertically opposite angles)
- (Given from the figure)
By the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) congruence criterion, .
Deduce corresponding parts from the congruence of and .
Since , their corresponding parts are equal:
- (Corresponding sides)
- and . Since and , it follows that .
Prove the congruence of and .
Consider and :
- (Proven in Step 3)
- (Common side)
- (Proven in Step 3)
By the Side-Side-Side (SSS) congruence criterion, .
Conclude the equality of corresponding angles.
Since , their corresponding angles are equal.
The angle in corresponds to the angle in .
Therefore, .This completes the proof.
