\(ABC\) is a triangle right angled at \(C\). A line through the mid-point \(M\) of hypotenuse \(AB\) and parallel to \(BC\) intersects \(AC\) at \(D\).
 
Show that
 
(i) \(D\) is the mid-point of \(AC\)
 
(ii) \(MD ⊥ AC\)
 
(iii) \(CM = MA = \frac{1}{2}AB\)
 
Important!
The line drawn through the mid-point of one side of a triangle, parallel to another side bisects the third side.
