Required
Complete the blanks
1. V is the [tex]midpoint[/tex] of |E, [tex]\angle I \cong \angle E[/tex] ---- This statement was stated in the question.
So, the reason is Given
2. Midpoint means halfway. So, we can fill the statement column with:
[tex]IV \cong VE[/tex] --- because V is the midpoint of IV and VE
or [tex]GV \cong VR[/tex] --- because V is the midpoint of GV and VR
3. Vertical angle are congruent. So, the statement is:
[tex]\angle GVI \cong \angle RVE[/tex] which means that angles at V are congruent
4. We have:
[tex]\triangle GVI \cong \triangle RVE[/tex] because
[tex]\angle GVI \cong \angle RVE[/tex] --- congruent angles (A)
[tex]IV \cong VE[/tex] ---- congruent sides (S)
[tex]\angle GIV \cong \angle REV[/tex] --- congruent angles (A)
The above implies that: [tex]\triangle GVI \cong \triangle RVE[/tex] because of ASA congruence
5. CPCTC is true here because GV and VR are corresponding sides of triangles GVI and RVE. ---- [tex]\triangle GVI \cong \triangle RVE[/tex]
Hence, both sides are congruent ----[tex]GV \cong VR[/tex]
6. The given statement has been prived
