In parallelogram abcd, e is the midpoint of ab and f is the midpoint of dc . let g be the intersection of the diagonal db and the line segment ef . prove that g is the midpoint of ef.

The midpoint of the line is the point that divides in two halves of the same length.

Reasons:

The given parameters are;

The midpoint of AB in parallelogram ABCD = E

The midpoint of DC = F

Point of intersection of EF and DB = Point G

Required:

To prove that point G is the midpoint of EF.

GF = GE that prove G is the mid-point of EF

Step-by-step explanation:

In the Parallelogram ABCD

∵E is the mid-point of AB

∵F is the mid-point of CD

∵AB = CD opposite sides in the parallelogram

∴EB = DF⇒(1)

∵AB // CD opposite sides in the parallelogram

∴m∠EBD = m∠FDB alternate angles ⇒(2)

∵BD intersects EF at G

∴m∠BGE = m∠DGF vertically opposite angles ⇒(3)

By using (1) , (2) and (3) you can prove:

ΔBGE is congruent to ΔDGF ⇒ AAS

∴GF = GE

∴G is the mid-point of EF
