Choose the correct answer below.
A.
By the Segment Addition Postulate, AD=AB+CD and CE=CD+DE. So, using substitution, AE=AB+BC+CD+DE.
B.
By the Segment Addition Postulate, AB=BC and CD=DE. So, using simple addition, AE=AB+BC+CD+DE.
C.
By the Segment Addition Postulate, AE=AC+CE, AC=AB+BC, and CE=CD+DE. So, using substitution, AE=AB+BC+CD+DE.
D.
By the Segment Addition Postulate, CD=AB+BC and DE=BC+CD.
