Proofs in Plane Geometry - Midpoint Theorem

Proofs in Plane Geometry - Midpoint Theorem

In trapezium \(ABGD\), \(AB\) is parallel to \(DC\) and \(E\) and \(F\) are the midpoints of the line segments \(BD\) and \(AC\) respectively. \(BFG\) and \(DGC\) are straight lines. Prove that

  1. \(\Delta ABF\) and \(\Delta CGF\) are congruent,
  2. \(EF=\frac{1}{2}(CD-AB)\).
