Answer» From the diagram attached, since bx and cy are perpendiculars to a line passing through the vertex a, it FOLLOWS that xy is parallel to bc Again, from the diagram, bx = cy ANGLE XBZ = angle ycz = 90 degrees Since z is the mid-point of bc, it follows that bz = zc From the forgoing, triangle xbz is congruent to triangle ycz (SSS) Therefore, xyz Step-by-step explanation: |
