The figure shows ∆ABC with m∠ABC = 90°.

The first 10 steps to prove that AB2 + BC2 = AC2 are given in the table. Match the remaining steps to their correct sequence in the proof.

Statement Reason
1. Draw . construction
2. ∠ABC ≅ ∠BDC Angles with the same measure are congruent.
4. ∠BCA ≅ ∠DCB Reflexive Property of Congruence
4. AA criterion for similarity
5. Corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional.
6. BC2 = AC × DC cross multiplication
7. ∠ABC ≅ ∠ADB Angles with the same measure are congruent.
8. ∠BAC ≅ ∠DAB Reflexive Property of Congruence

AB2 + BC2 = AC2
Reason: multiplication
AB2 + BC2 = AC × AC
Reason: segment addition
AB2 = AC × AD
Reason: cross multiplication
AB2 + BC2 = AC(AD + DC)
Reason: Distributive Property
AB2 + BC2 = AC × AD + AC × DC
Reason: addition
