What is a midsegment in a triangle?

Back

A midsegment is a segment that connects the midpoints of two sides of a triangle.

Front

If the length of side BC is 24, what is the length of the midsegment DE?

Back

The length of midsegment DE is 12, which is half of the length of side BC.

If the midsegment of a triangle is 18, what is the length of the side it is parallel to?

Back

The length of the side it is parallel to is 36, since the midsegment is half the length of that side.
