5. Use ΔABC to answer the question that follows:
Given: ΔABC Prove: The three medians of ΔABC intersect at a common point. When written in the correct order, the two-column proof below describes the statements and justifications for proving the three medians of a triangle all intersect in one point:
Statements ║ Justifications
Point F is a midpoint of Line segment AB Point E is a midpoint of Line segment AC Draw Line segment BE Draw Line segment FC ║ by Construction
Point G is the point of intersection between Line segment BE and Line segment FC ║ Intersecting Lines Postulate
Draw Line segment AG ║ by Construction
Point D is the point of intersection between Line segment AG and Line segment BC ║ Intersecting Lines Postulate
Point H lies on Line segment AG such that Line segment AG ≅ Line segment GH ║ by Construction
I Line segment BD ≅ Line segment DC ║ Properties of a Parallelogram (diagonals bisect each other)
II Line segment FG is parallel to line segment BH and Line segment GE is parallel to line segment HC ║ Midsegment Theorem
III Line segment GC is parallel to line segment BH and Line segment BG is parallel to line segment HC ║ Substitution
IV BGCH is a parallelogram ║ Properties of a Parallelogram (opposite sides are parallel)
Line segment AD is a median ║ Definition of a Median
