Quiz on Theorems Involving Parallel Lines

What does it mean when two lines are parallel in terms of distance between points?

• All points on one line are equidistant from the other line.

• The lines intersect at one point.

• The lines are perpendicular to each other.

• The lines have different slopes.

If three parallel lines cut off congruent segments on one transversal, what happens on another transversal?

• The segments are not congruent.

• The segments are congruent.

• The segments are parallel.

What is the mid-segment theorem in triangles?

• A line connecting midpoints of two sides is perpendicular to the third side.

• A line connecting midpoints of two sides is parallel to the third side and half its length.

• A line connecting midpoints of two sides is equal in length to the third side.

• A line connecting midpoints of two sides is twice the length of the third side.

In a triangle, if a mid-segment is half the length of the third side, what can be inferred?

• The mid-segment is parallel to the third side.

• The mid-segment is perpendicular to the third side.
