Q:

Complete the paragraph proof. Given: ∠ABR and ∠ACR are right angles AB ≅ BC BC ≅ AC Prove: bisects ∠BAC It is given that ∠ABR and ∠ACR are right angles, AB ≅ BC and BC ≅ AC Since they contain right angles, △ABR and △ACR are right triangles. The right triangles share hypotenuse AR, and reflexive property justifies that AR ≅ AR. Since AB ≅ BC and BC ≅ AC, the transitive property justifies AB ≅ AC. Now, the hypotenuse and leg of right △ABR is congruent to the hypotenuse and the leg of right △ACR, so △ABR ≅ △ACR by the HL congruence postulate. Therefore, by CPCTC, and bisects ∠BAC by the definition of bisector.
