What is a triangle?
A triangle is a three-edged polygon with three vertices. It is a fundamental form in geometry. The sum of all the angles of a triangle is always equal to 180°.
The triangles ΔEST and ΔEFD are similar triangles, therefore, we can write,
[tex]\dfrac{ES}{EF} = \dfrac{ET}{ED} = \dfrac{ST}{FD}[/tex]
Since S and T are midpoints of EF and ED, the lines will be divided into two equal parts. Therefore,
[tex]\dfrac{ES}{EF} = \dfrac{ET}{ED} = \dfrac{ST}{FD}= \dfrac12[/tex]
Therefore, we can write it as,
[tex]FD = 2 (ST)[/tex]
In ΔEST and ΔTDR
∠T ≅ ∠T {Vertical angles}
ET ≅ TD {T is the midpoint of ED}
∠SET ≅ ∠TDR {Alternate interior angles}
Therefore, ΔEST ≅ ΔTDR.
Since the two triangles are equal we can write,
ST ≅ TR
Further, it can be written as,
FD = 2(ST)
FD = ST + ST
FD = ST + TR
FD = SR
Hence, FD≅SR.
