Theorem: The segment joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half its length. A two-column proof of the theorem is shown, but the proof is incomplete. A triangle with vertices A is at 6, 8. B is at 2, 2. C is at 8, 4. Segment DE with point D on side AB and point E is on side BC Statement Reason The coordinates of point D are (4, 5) and coordinates of point E are (5, 3) By the midpoint formula Length of segment DE is Square root of 5 and length of segment AC is 2 multiplied by the square root of 5 By the distance formula Segment DE is half the length of segment AC By substitution Slope of segment DE is −2 and slope of segment AC is −2 Segment DE is parallel to segment AC Slopes of parallel lines are equal Which of the following completes the proof? (6 points) By definition of congruence Addition property of equality By construction By the slope formula
