Question

Write the name of the definition, postulate, property or theorem that justifies the statement about the diagram.

Answer 1

The following are the statement justifications and explanatory reasons ;

(a) AD + DB = AB; Is justified by segment addition postulate

Reason

Segment addition postulate states that let A and B represent two points,

Then a third D can be on the line joining A and B, if and only if the

relationship between the points is according to the equation, AD + DB = AB

only

(b) m∠1 + m∠2 = m∠CDB; Is justified by angle addition postulate

Reason

Angle addition postulate states that given that a point B lies between an angle m∠AOC, then we have;

m∠AOC = m∠AOB + m∠BOC

(c) ∠2 ≅ ∠6; Is justified by vertically opposite angles theorem

Reason

Vertical angles formed by the crossing of two lines are always equal

(d) If D is the midpoint of $\overline{AB}$, then AD = $\dfrac{1}{2}$×AB; Definition of midpoint

Reason

The midpoint of a line is the point that is of equal distance from both ends of the of the line. It is the point halfway between the endpoints

(e) If $\underset{DF}{\rightarrow}$ bisects ∠CDB then ∠1 ≅ ∠2; Definition of angle bisector

Reason

An angle bisector is a ray or line that divides an angle into two angles that are congruent

(f) m∠ADF + m∠FDB = 180°; Linear pair postulate

Reason

The linear pair postulate states that where we have two angles that form a linear pear (their addition forms a straight line), then the two angles are supplementary  (their sum is 180°)

(g) ∠ADF and ∠4 are supplements, then m∠ADF + m∠4 = 180°; Definition of supplementary angle

Reason

Supplementary angle are defined as angles that when added together, have a sum of 180°

(h) If ∠4 is complementary to ∠5, and ∠6 is complementary to ∠5, then ∠4 ≅ ∠6; Transitive property

Reason

Transitive property states that given three real numbers, a, b, and c, if a = b and c = b, then a = c
