Question
given: rhombus tcbv,
(overline{cu}perpoverline{bv},overline{cs}perpoverline{tv})
prove: (overline{cu}congoverline{cs})
Step1: Definition of a rhombus
All sides of a rhombus are equal, so \( TV = BV \).
Step2: AAS (Angle - Angle - Side) Congruence
Since \( \angle CSU=\angle CUB = 90^{\circ}\), \( \angle T=\angle B \) (opposite angles of a rhombus are equal) and \( TV = BV \), by AAS congruence criterion \( \triangle CTS\cong\triangle CBU \).
Step3: CPCTC (Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent)
If \( \triangle CTS\cong\triangle CBU \), then \( CU = CS \) (corresponding parts of congruent triangles).
