Explanation:

Step1: Find reason for statement 6

Since \(\triangle BAD\cong\triangle ABC\) (from statement 5), by the Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent (CPCTC) theorem, \(\angle BAD\cong\angle ABC\).

Step2: Find reason for statement 9

Because \(m\angle BAD = m\angle ABC\) (from statement 7) and \(m\angle BAD+m\angle ABC = 180^{\circ}\) (from statement 8), we substitute \(m\angle ABC\) with \(m\angle BAD\) in the equation \(m\angle BAD+m\angle ABC = 180^{\circ}\). So the reason is Substitution Property of Equality.

Step3: Find statement 11

From \(2m\angle BAD=180^{\circ}\) (statement 10), using the Division Property of Equality (\(a = b\Rightarrow\frac{a}{c}=\frac{b}{c},c
eq0\)), we divide both sides of the equation \(2m\angle BAD = 180^{\circ}\) by 2. So \(m\angle BAD=90^{\circ}\).

Answer:

  1. Reason: Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent (CPCTC)
  2. Reason: Substitution Property of Equality
  3. Statement: \(m\angle BAD = 90^{\circ}\)
