Mid Point Theorem

Which of the following is the statement of the Mid-point Theorem ?

• The line segment joining the mid-points of any two sides of a triangle is equal to the third side.

• The line segment joining the mid-points of any two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and is equal to it.

• The line segment joining the mid-points of any two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and is equal to half of it.

• The line segment joining the mid-points of any two sides of a triangle is twice the third side.
