According to the given information, quadrilateral RECT is a rectangle. By the definition of a rectangle, all four angles measure 90°. Segment ER is parallel to segment CT and ______________ by the Converse of the Same-Side Interior Angles Theorem. Quadrilateral RECT is then a parallelogram by definition of a parallelogram. Now, construct diagonals ET and CR. Because RECT is a parallelogram, opposite sides are congruent. Therefore, one can say that segment ER is congruent to segment CT. Segment TR is congruent to itself by the Reflexive Property of Equality. The Side-Angle-Side (SAS) Theorem says triangle ERT is congruent to triangle CTR. And because corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (CPCTC), diagonals ET and CR are congruent.
