What does the Triangle Mid-Segment Theorem state?

• The segment joining the midpoints of any two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half its length.

• The segment joining the midpoints of any two sides of a triangle is twice the length of the third side.

• The segment joining the midpoints of any two sides of a triangle is perpendicular to the third side.

• The segment joining the midpoints of any two sides of a triangle is equal to the third side.
