Question

Find x if MN is the midsegment of △ ABC.

hintHint:

Use triangle midsegment theorem.

The correct answer is: Hence the length of BA = x = 50.


    Complete step by step solution:
    A midsegment of a triangle is a segment that connects the midpoints of two sides of
    a triangle. Its length is always half the length of the 3rd side of the triangle.
    From this property, we have  MN equals 1 half B A

    not stretchy rightwards double arrow 25 equals 1 half cross times space

    not stretchy rightwards double arrow x equals 2 cross times 25
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow x equals 50
    Hence the length of B A equals x equals 50.

    Solve each inequality and graph the solution :
    x+9>15.

    Note:
    When we have an inequality with the symbols , we use dotted lines to graph them. This is because we do not include the end point of the inequality.
