Question

In △ ABC, AM ≅ BM
BQ ≅ QC
Prove that MQ ∥ AC.

The correct answer is: Hence proved


    SOLUTION:
    HINT: Use the property of a midsegment in a triangle and find out.
    Complete step by step solution:
    Here AM=BM,
    ⇒ M is the midpoint of AB.
    Also, BQ= QC,
    ⇒ Q is the midpoint of BC.
    According to the definition of midsegment, A midsegment of a triangle is a segment
    that connects the midpoints of two sides of a triangle. It will always be parallel to the
    third side of the triangle.
    Since M and Q are midpoints of AB and BC respectively, it forms a midsegment and
    will be parallel to the third side of the triangle.
    ⇒ MQ ∥ AC
    Hence proved.

    Lourdes plans to jog at least 1.5 miles . Write and solve an inequality to find X, the number of hours Lourdes will have to jog.

    A distance is generally the amount of space or length that separates two people, objects, or situations. For example, four meters separate two streetlight poles, for instance, as a distance measure.
    Where Distance = time × speed
    Example: We kept a safe distance between two objects. At the same time, we notice a new space between object one and object 2. Although once close, there was a significant gap between the objects. However, wishes to distance themself from the object's former boss.
