Mid-Point Mid-Point TheoremTheoremThe segment The segment
joining the joining the midpoints of two midpoints of two sides of a triangle sides of a triangle is parallel to the is parallel to the third side and half third side and half of it.of it.
Prove Prove AM=BM [midpoint].AM=BM [midpoint].
< AMP = <MBQ < AMP = <MBQ [Corresponding angles for [Corresponding angles for parallel lines cut by an parallel lines cut by an transversal].transversal].
<BQM=<QCP=<APM <BQM=<QCP=<APM [Corresponding angles for [Corresponding angles for parallel lines cut by an parallel lines cut by an transversal].transversal].
<BMQ=<MAP [When 2 <BMQ=<MAP [When 2 pairs of corresponding pairs of corresponding angles are congruent in a angles are congruent in a triangle, the third pair is triangle, the third pair is also congruent.]also congruent.]
AMP is congruent to AMP is congruent to MBQ. [ASA]MBQ. [ASA]
Therefore: AP=MQ=PC Therefore: AP=MQ=PC and MP=BQ=QC. and MP=BQ=QC.
