The route for a charity fitness run is shown The route for a charity fitness run is shown. Checkpoint X and Z are the midpoints between the starting line and Checkpoint y and Checkpoint Y and the finish line F, respectively. If Checkpoint Y is the same distance from Checkpoint X and Z, prove that the route from Checkpoint Z to the finish line is congruent to the route from the starting line to the Checkpoint X.
Given: Prove: (Or substitution)
