Answer:

B, C and D.

Step-by-step explanation:

If UV bisects XY at point W, we have the diagram below:

As can be seen, the point W divides XY into two equal parts: XW and YW.

Therefore:

(B) WX=YW.

Also:

UV = UW+WV

(C)UV-UW=WV

Finally, since W bisects XY, W is the midpoint of XY.

The correct options are B, C, and D.
