 MIDLINE
THEOREM
The segments whose
endpoints are the
midpoints of two sides of
a triangle that are
parallel to and half as
long as the third side.
 PROVING
MIDLINE THEOREM
GIVEN: TRIANGLE LVR LET O BE
THE MIDPOINT OF LV AND E BE
THE MIDPOINT OF VR
PROVE: OE ‖ LR AND HALF AS
LONG AS THE THIRD SIDE.
LET S BE A POINT
ON LINE OS WHERE
OE ES
 IF O AND E ARE BOTH
MIDPOINTS OF LV AND VR,
THEN LO OV AND
VE ER
 BY VERTICAL ANGLE
THEOREM, WE CAN SAY
THAT
VE0 RES
BY SAS POSTULATE, WE
CAN SAY THAT
VEO RES
 OV SR BY CPCTC
LO SR BY TRANSITIVITY
AND OVE SRE
 SINCE PAIR OF AIA ARE
FORMED THEN LO RS AND
THUS FORMED
PARALLELOGRAM LOSR.
 BECAUSE THIS IS A
PARALLELOGRAM AND ITS
PROPERTY SAYS THAT TWO PAIR
OF OPPOSITE SIDES ARE
CONGRUENT AND PARALLEL,
THEN OS LR AND THEREFORE
OE LR.
NOTE THAT E IS THE MIDPOINT
OF OS, THEREFORE
|OE| = |ES| AND |OS|=|LR|
SO, |OE| + |OE| = |OS|
|OE| + |OE| = |LR|
2|0E| = |LR|
THEREFORE, |OE| = |LR|
GIVEN: TRIANGLE LVR LET O BE
THE MIDPOINT OF LV AND E BE
THE MIDPOINT OF VR
PROVE: OE ‖ LR AND HALF AS
LONG AS THE THIRD SIDE.

HAS A PAIR OF PARALLEL SIDES.
TRAPEZOID

HAS FOUR SIDES AND FOUR ANGLES.

ONE PAIR OF OPPOSITE SIDES ARE
PARALLEL.
ADJACENT ANGLES ARE
SUPPLEMENTARY.
THE MEDIAN IS PARALLEL TO THE BASES
AND DIVIDES THE NON-PARALLEL SIDES
EQUALLY.
 ISOSCELES TRAPEZOID IS A

THE BASES ARE PARALLEL.

THE LEGS ARE CONGRUENT.
THE LOWER BASE ANGLES ARE CONGRUENT.
THE UPPER BASE ANGLES ARE CONGRUENT.
THE DIAGONALS ARE CONGRUENT.
THE OPPOSITE ANGLES ARE SUPPLEMENTARY
ANY LOWER BASE ANGLE IS SUPPLEMENTARY
TO ANY UPPER BASE ANGLE.
KITE IS A QUADRILATERAL WITH TWO
DISTINCT PAIRS OF CONSECUTIVE
SIDES THAT ARE CONGRUENT.
KITE

DIAGONALS ARE PERPENDICULAR

HAS EXACTLY ONE PAIR OF
OPPOSITE CONGRUENT ANGLES.
HAS ONLY ONE DIAGONAL THAT BISECTS THE
OTHER DIAGONAL.
HAS A DIAGONAL THAT BISECTS EACH OF THE
NONCONGRUENT ANGLES.
