What is a midsegment of a triangle?

Back

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

Front

What is the relationship between a midsegment and the sides of a triangle?

Back

A midsegment is parallel to the third side of the triangle and its length is half the length of that side.

Front

If a triangle has sides of lengths 10 and 14, what is the length of the midsegment connecting those sides?

Back

The length of the midsegment is 7, which is half of the length of the third side (14).

Front

How do you find the midpoint of a segment?

Back

To find the midpoint of a segment, average the x-coordinates and the y-coordinates of the endpoints.

Front

What is the measure of angles formed by a midsegment and the sides of a triangle?

Back

The angles formed by a midsegment and the sides of a triangle are equal to the angles at the opposite vertex.

Front

If one side of a triangle measures 30 units, what is the length of the midsegment parallel to that side?

Back

The length of the midsegment is 15 units, which is half of 30.

Front

What is the Triangle Midsegment Theorem?

Back

The Triangle Midsegment Theorem states that a midsegment of a triangle is parallel to one side and half as long.

Front

How can you use midsegments to find unknown lengths in a triangle?

Back

You can use the properties of midsegments to set up proportions based on the lengths of the sides of the triangle.

Front

What is the significance of parallel lines in triangles?

Back

Parallel lines in triangles help establish relationships between angles and lengths, allowing for the application of theorems.

Front

If AC = 42, what is the length of the midsegment DF?

Back

The length of midsegment DF is 21, which is half of AC.
