Question
Write a paragraph proof to prove that AE ≅ ED.

Transcribed Image Text:**Exercises**
1. In the figure, E is the midpoint of \( \overline{AB} \) and \( \overline{CD} \), and \( AB = CD \). Write a paragraph proof to prove that \( \triangle AE \cong \triangle ED \).
_E is the midpoint of \( \overline{AB} \) and \( \overline{CD} \), and \( AB = CD \)._
2. Given that S is the midpoint of \( \overline{QP} \), T is the midpoint of \( \overline{PR} \), and P is the midpoint of \( \overline{ST} \), write a paragraph proof to show that \( QS = TR \).
**Diagram Explanation:**
The image includes a simple geometric figure with points A, B, C, D, and E. There are line segments \( \overline{AB} \) and \( \overline{CD} \) with E marked as their midpoint. The layout suggests congruent line segments, with lines drawn to emphasize the geometric relationships being described.
