Question

Consider the conditional statement of N is the midpoint of CD then CD =2CN what is the hypothesis

Answer 1

Explanation:

If N is the midpoint of CD, it means that N bisects the line CD. Hence;

CN + ND = CD .... 1 and;

CN = ND .... 2

Substitute equation 2 into 1;

CN + CN = CD

2CN = CD

Rearrange;

CD = 2CN (proved)

The hypothesis is the midpoint hypothesis and the hypothesis is TRUE
