Given: isosceles right ABC with right angle LABC;
M is the midpoint of AC.
Prove: BM L AC.
.. Write a coordinate proof to prove that in an isosceles right a triangle, the segment from the vertex of the right angle to the midpoint of the hypotenuse is perpendicular to the hypotenuse. Given: isosceles right AABC with right angle ZABC; M is the midpoint of AC. Prove: BM IAC. The Midpoint Formula shows that the coordinates of M are: The slope of AC is: The slope of BM is: The product of the slopes is SO
