  1. Write a two-column proof.
    1. Given: R is the midpoint of MP\overline {MP}.
      R is the midpoint of NQ\overline {NQ}.
      Prove: MRN\triangle MRN\congPRQ\triangle PRQ

    2. Special case for right triangle:
      Given: ABC\triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle.
      D is the midpoint of AC\overline {AC}.
      Prove: ABD\triangle ABD\congCBD\triangle CBD.
