ABC is a triangle right angle at C. A line through the mid - point M of hypotenuse AB and parallel to BC intersects AC at D. Show that :
1:D is mid -point of AC
2:MD is perpendicular to AC
3:CM=MA=1/2 AB
..........plz solve this.I will mark as brainliest

Obviously CM = MA = MB
CM = (1/2)AB
i) 2 triangles AMC and BMD are congruent because MC = MD = MA =MB
and angle AMC = BMD ( opposite )
ii) angle DBC = angle DBA + angle ABC
but angle DBC = angle ACB (alternate conner )
then angle DBC =angle ACB + angle ABC = 90 degrees
(because ABC is a given right triangle)
So angle DBC is a right angle.
iii) Because the 2 right triangles have same BC and AC = BD
CM = (1/2)AB
i) 2 triangles AMC and BMD are congruent because MC = MD = MA =MB
