Math Question

Consider the figure below.
Use a coordinate proof to prove that midsegment \( M N \) of \( \triangle P Q R \) is parallel to \( P R \) and half the length of
PR. Which is the best first step?
A Place the triangle on a coordinate grid such that vertex \( P \) is at the origin and \( \overline{P R} \) lies on the \( x- \) axis.
Place the triangle on a coordinate grid such that vertex \( P \) is on the \( y \)-axis and vertex \( R \) is on the \( x \)-axis.
(C) Place the triangle on a coordinate grid such that vertex \( Q \) is at the origin.
(D) Place the triangle on a coordinate grid such that \( \overline{Q R} \) lies on the \( x \)-axis and \( \overline{P Q} \) lies on the \( y \)-axis.
