- In the illustration, point M is the midpoint of the hypotenuse of right triangle AOB. Show that the area of rectangle OLMN is one-half of the area of triangle AOB.arrow_forwarda Argue that the midpoint of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equidistant from the three vertices of the triangle. Use the fact that the congruent diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other. Be sure to provide a drawing. bUse the relationship from part a to find CM, the length of the median to the hypotenuse of right ABC, in which mC=90, AC = 6, and BC = 8.arrow_forwardUse the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse in the triangle shown below.arrow_forward
