Correct Answer:
To complete the proof, we show that the midpoint of diagonal and the midpoint of diagonal
are the same point, namely the point of intersection of these diagonals.
Now so
. Also,
so
.
Thus, the common midpoint of and
must be their point of intersection, so
and
bisect each other.

Correct Answer:
For ABCD to represent a rhombus, the lengths of 2 adjacent sides of must be congruent. Of course,
when
. With A and D on the x axis, we see that
. Applying the Distance Formula, we also have
or
.
Thus, ABCD is a rhombus when .
-Let a and b represent positive real numbers. Use the right triangle
with vertices at R(0,0), S(2a,0), and T(0,2b) to prove the following theorem.
"The midpoint of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equidistant from the three vertices of the
triangle."
