1 7distmidcoordproof

This document provides instructions and examples for using coordinate geometry formulas like the distance, slope, and midpoint formulas to prove geometric properties of shapes on a coordinate plane. It lists the distance, slope, and midpoint formulas and outlines the steps to take when developing a coordinate geometry proof, including drawing and labeling the graph, stating the formulas, showing all work, and providing a concluding statement. It then provides 4 example proofs to demonstrate this process.

Slope Formula

Midpoint Formula

When developing a coordinate geometry proof:


1. Draw and label the graph.
2. State the formulas you will be using.
3. Show ALL work.
4. Have a concluding sentence stating
what you have proven and why it is true.

1. Given:
Prove:

is isosceles

2.
Prove: is isosceles

3. Given: Right ABC with vertices


A (3, 2), B (3, 1), and C (1, 5).
Prove: Prove that the midpoint of the hypotenuse
of ABC is equidistant form the three vertices.

4. Given: Parallelogram ABCD with vertices


A (0, 4), B (7, 1), C (9, 5), and D (2, 8).
Prove: The sum of the squares of the sides of
p-gram ABCD is equal to the sum of the squares
of the diagonals.
