Prove that the straight line joining the middle point of the hypotenuse of a right angled triangle to the right angle is equal to half the hypotenuse. I am supposed to use the following 8 theorems only to prove the above prepositions:
Theorem 1: If a ray stands on a line , then the sum of the adjacent angles formed is $180 $deg.
Theorem 2: If two lines intersect , then the vertically opposite angles are equal.
Theorem 3: If a transversal cuts two parallel lines, then each pair of alternate angles are equal, and the interior angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary.
Theorem 4: Lines which are parallel to the same line are parallel to each other.
Theorem 5: The sum of the three angles of a triangle is $180$deg.
Theorem 6: If one side of a triangle is produced , the exterior angle so formed is equal to the sum of the interior opposite angles.
Theorem 7: The angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal in an isosceles triangle.
Theorem 8: The bisector of the vertical angle of an isosceles triangle bisects the base and is perpendicular to the base.
I tried to get the solution but could not apply theorems 7 and 8 since it is a right angle triangle. I don't use concept of rotation. I use ASA, SAS, SSS and RHS Postulates and converse of theorem 1,3,7 and 8. can anyone tell me how the proof looks like? Thanks in advance...Srikanth
 A: in $ \triangle ABC$, $\angle B=90^\circ$, $AD=DC$


*

*we draw $DO \perp BC$. So $BO=OC= \frac{BC}{2}$ and $DO= \frac{AB}{2} $ [midpoint theorem]

*so $ BD^2=DO^2+BO^2=\frac{BC^2+AB^2}{4}=\frac{AC^2}{4}$

*so $BD= \frac{AC}{2}$ (proved)
A: Let $\triangle ABC$ be a right angled triangle, right angled at $B$. Therefore the hypotenuse is $AC$. Let the middle point of $AC$ be $D$. Now draw a perpendicular $DE$ on $BA$ and $DF$ on $CB$. Now note that $DE \| CB$ (converse of Theorem 3) and similarly $DF \| AB \implies DF \|EB$ (corollary from Theorem 2). Now in $\triangle ADE$ and $\triangle DFC$ we have  $1. DA=CD$, $2. \angle AED = \angle DFC$ and $3. \angle EDA = \angle FED$ (from Theorem 3). There the two triangles are congruent. Hence we get $AE=DF$. But since in quadrilateral $DEBF$ we get $DF \| EB$ and $DE\|FA$ hence quadrilateral $DEBF$ is a parallelogram and so $DF=EB$ and $DE=FA$ thus giving us $AE=EB$ making $E$ the midpoint of $BA$. Now we note that in $\triangle ABD$ we get that$DE$ is the perpendicular bisector of $BA$. Hence $\triangle ABD $ is isosceles (converse of Theorem 8). We then get $AD = DB$. Similarly by proving that $\triangle DBC$ is isosceles we get $DB=CD$. Thus the theorem is proved.   
A: Let $ABC$ be the triangle, with $C$ the right angle. Draw parallel lines to $AC$ and $BC$, through $B$ and $A$ respectively. Say they intersect in $D$. By Theorem 3, $\angle ABD$ and $\angle BAC$ are equal. So are $\angle BAD$ and $\angle ABC$. Therefore $\triangle ABC$ and $\triangle ABD$ are equal, by $ASA$. We get that $ABCD$ is a rectangle quadrilateral. Say that $CD$ intersects $AB$ at $M$. By $SAS$ we have that $\triangle DBC$ is equal to $\triangle DAC$. Use now Theorem 3 again , and the equality of all those right-angle triangles to show that $\angle DBA$ and $\angle BDC$ are equal. This shows that $\triangle DMB$ is isosceles. Similarly it follows that $\triangle BMC$, $\triangle CMA$, and $\triangle AMD$ are all isosceles. By $SAS$ $\triangle BMC$ and $\triangle DMA$ are equal. The $M$ is the mid point of $AB$ and $CM=BM$.
A: Let ABC a triangle right angled at A. Then the hypotenous=BC. Now mid point of BC be D. Construct a line segment DE perpendicular to AB. We will find that AE=CE. In triangle ADC,angleAED=angleCED=90,AE=CE and DE=DE then triangle ADE congruent to triangle DEC. Then by CPCT AD=DC or qe can say that AD=half BC. Proved
A: I didn't read Theorems 1–8, but offer the following proof: The midpoint $M$ of the hypotenuse $AB$ is the center of a Thales circle with  diameter $AB$, and $MC$ is a radius of this circle.
