Question 1019282: You are given that: Triangle ABC where segment AB is congruent to segment AC; draw a median from A to segment BC
Now prove that: Angle C is congruent to Angle B
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Your task is to show the two smaller triangles congruent via SSS.
Start with the given, then state any segment equals itself.
Use the definition of a median to show that the two pieces of the base are congruent.
Now you have SSS.
Once you do that, you have angle B = angle C by CPCTC.
