| The AC and ВM segments intersect and the intersection point is divided in half. Prove that triangle ABC is equal to triangle CMA.
Given:
Segments AC and BM intersect at point O,
AO = OС,
ВO = OM.
Prove that triangle ABC is equal to triangle CMA.
Evidence:
1) Consider the triangle AOM and BOС. They have AO = OС, ВO = OM, angle AOM = angle ВOС, as they are vertical, then on two sides and the angle between them, the triangles AOM = ВOС. So AM = BC;
2) Consider the triangle AOB and MOС. They have AO = OС, BO = OM, angle AOB = angle MOC, since they are vertical, then on two sides and the angle between them the triangles AOB = MOC. So AB = MC;
3) Triangle ABC = CMA on three sides, since AM = BC, AB = MC and BM are common. Proven.
