Question

𝐼 is the midpoint of 𝐻𝐽 and 𝐻𝐽 = 12.8 𝑐𝑚
Find 𝐻𝐼 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐼𝐽.

hintHint:

    Midpoint divides the line segment in two equal parts.
    • If length of Line is x, then midpoint will divide the it in two equal parts of  .
  • Step by step explanation: 
    • Given:
The midpoint of the line HJ is I.
HJ = 12.8cm

The correct answer is: HI is 6.4 cm and IJ is 6.4 cm.


    Step 1:
    • As we know, the midpoint divides the line segment in two equal parts
    So,
    Midpoint I will divide HJ in two equal parts
    HI and IJ are two equal parts.
    HI = IL
    • Step 1:
    As we know that.
    HJ = HI + IJ
    12.8 = HI + HI     { as HI = IJ }
    12.8 = 2 HI
    HI =fraction numerator 12.8 over denominator 2 end fraction
    HI = 6.4 cm
    And as HI = IJ therefore IJ = 6.4 cm.
    Hence, HI is 6.4 cm and IJ is 6.4 cm.
