beth is planning a playground and has decided to place the swings in such a way that they are the same distance from the jungle gym and the monkey bars. if beth places the swings at point d, how could she prove that point d is equidistant from the jungle gym and monkey bars? if segment dc bisects segment ab, then point d is equidistant from points a and b because a point on a perpendicular bisector is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment it intersects. if segment dc bisects segment ab, then point d is equidistant from points a and b because congruent parts of congruent triangles are congruent. if segment ad bisects segment ab, then point d is equidistant from points a and b because a point on a perpendicular bisector is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment it intersects. if segment ad bisects segment ab, then point d is equidistant from points a and b because congruent parts of congruent triangles are congruent.

Answer:

Step-by-step segment dc bisects segment ab, then point d is equidistant from points a and b because a point on a perpendicular bisector is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment it intersects. if segment dc bisects segment ab, then point d is equidistant from points a and b because congruent parts of congruent triangles are congruent. if segment ad bisects segment ab, then point d is equidistant from points a and b because a point on a perpendicular bisector is equidistant from:
