Fill in the following statements.
DE ||
2DE =

DE ║ BC

BC = 2(DE)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

AD = DB [Given]

AE = EC [Given]

Therefore, points D and E will be the midpoints of the sides AB and AC.

By midsegment theorem,

Segment joining midpoints of the two sides of a triangle is parallel and measures the half of the third side of the triangle.

DE ║ BC

DE =

BC = 2(DE)
