    Arrange statements A–E
    Write an indirect proof of the corollary:
    If ABC is a right-angle triangle, BC is the hypotenuse, then ∠A is the right angle.
    Given that ∆QPR is the right-angle triangle, QR is the hypotenuse.
    A. That means say ∠R or ∠Q is a right angle.
    B. But this contradicts, the given statement that QR is the hypotenuse.
    C. The contradiction shows that the temporary assumption that ∠P is not the right angle is false. This proves that ∠P is the right angle.
    D. Then, by known theorem, you can conclude that PQ or PR is the hypotenuse.
