By the End of This Lesson

📐

Prove the mid-point theorem with vectors

📏

Show the mid-point of a hypotenuse is equidistant from the vertices

🔷

Show mid-points of a quadrilateral form a parallelogram

⭕

Prove the angle in a semicircle is 90 degrees

🧮

Find mid-points and dividing points with vectors

The Tools in Every Proof

🔺

Triangle law: AB + BC = AC

➡️

Parallel: a = k b

✖️

Perpendicular: a · b = 0

🟰

(a + b) · (a - b) = |a|² - |b|²

Presenter notes: Today we prove four geometry facts you already know, but with a new tool. Instead of congruent triangles we use vectors.
