Triangle and Trapezoid Midsegment Quiz

What is the definition of a midsegment in a triangle?

• A line segment that connects the perpendicular bisectors of two sides of a triangle.

• A line segment that connects the circumcenter and centroid of a triangle.

• A line segment that connects the midpoints of two sides of a triangle.

• A line segment that connects the vertices of a triangle.

In a triangle, if one midsegment is parallel to a side, what can you say about the other midsegment?

• They intersect at a right angle.

• They are perpendicular to the same side.

• They are also parallel to the same side.

• They are parallel to each other.

What is the formula to find the length of a midsegment in a triangle?

• The difference between the lengths of the two sides parallel to the midsegment.

• The product of the lengths of the two sides parallel to the midsegment.

• The sum of the lengths of the two sides parallel to the midsegment.

• Half the sum of the lengths of the two sides parallel to the midsegment.
