Answer:

Here are the completed proofs with the missing statements and reasons:

Proof 1:

Given: RS = 1/2RT

Prove: S is the midpoint of RT

Statements:

1. RS = 1/2RT (Given)

2. 2RS = RT (Multiplication Property of Equality)

3. RS + RS = RT (Addition Property of Equality)

4. RS = RT (Definition of Midpoint)

5. S is the midpoint of RT (Definition of Midpoint)

Proof 2:

Given: M is the midpoint of LN, N is the midpoint of MO

Prove: LM = MO

Statements:

1. M is the midpoint of LN (Given)

2. MN = NO (Definition of Midpoint)

3. N is the midpoint of MO (Given)

4. LM = MN + NO (Segment Addition Postulate)

5. LM = MO (Substitution Property)

Reasons for Proof 1:

1. Given

2. Multiply both sides by 2

3. Add RS to both sides

4. Definition of midpoint

5. Definition of midpoint

Reasons for Proof 2:

1. Given

2. Definition of midpoint

3. Given

4. Segment Addition Postulate

5. Substitution Property
