A line segment connects point A to point B, with a point M on the line segment between A and B.

Question
What is the next logical statement in the proof below?

Given: M is the midpoint of Modifying above A B with bar..

Prove: 2 left-parenthesis A M right-parenthesis equals A B

Statements Reasons
M is the midpoint of Modifying above A B with bar. given
Modifying above A M with bar congruent to Modifying above M B with bar A midpoint divides a segment into two congruent segments.
A M equals M B Congruent segments have equal lengths.
The length of A M plus the length of M B equals the length of A B Segment Addition Postulate.
? ?
2 left-parenthesis A M right-parenthesis equals A B Combine like terms.
