Clara writes the following proof for the theorem: If the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other, the quadrilateral is a parallelogram:

  CPCTC

Step-by-step explanation:

Statements 3 and 4 show the top and bottom triangles are congruent, and the left and right triangles are congruent. Statement 5 is making use of these facts to claim that the alternate interior angles are congruent. This claim is valid because ...

  Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent (CPCTC)

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

10

x=5
