Question

The Hatfield and McCoy families are feuding over some land. Neither family will be satisfied unless the two triangular fields are exactly the same size. You know that C is the midpoint of each of the intersecting segments in the diagram. Are the two

triangles congruent?

Answer 2

The two column proof has shown that:

The two triangles are congruent by SAS congruency postulate

How to use the Two Column Proof?

The two column proof to show that the two triangles are congruent is:

Statement 1: C is the midpoint of AD and BE

Reason 1: Given

Statement 2: AC ≅ CD

Reason 2: Definition of midpoint

Statement 3: BC ≅ CE

Reason 3: Definition of midpoint

Statement 4: ∠ACB ≅ ∠ECD

Reason 4: Vertical angles are congruent

Statement 5: ΔABC ≅ ΔDEC

Reason 5: SAS congruency postulate
