Write a proof for theorem 10.2. In a circle or in a congruent circle, two minor arcs are congruent if
and only if their corresponding chords are congruent.
Given: Circle X, Arc UV is congruent to arc YW
Prove: Line segment UV is congruent to line segment YW
1. Circle X, arc UV is congruent to arc YW 1. Given
2.Angle UXV is congruent to angle WXY 2. If arcs are congruent, their corresponding central angles are congruent
3.Line segment UX is congruent to line
Segment XV which is congruent to Line
segment XW which is congruent to line
segment XY 3. All Radii of a circle are congruent
4. Triangle UXV is congruent to triangle WXY 4. SAS
5. Line segment UV is congruent to line segment YW 5. CPCTC
