Warm-up Solve the following problems for x. 13 + 3x – 5 = 2x
Segments Section 1.3
Line Segment Slides 1-3 A line segment consists of two points called endpoints of the segment and all the points between them. A D H A piece of spaghetti is a physical model of a line segment.
Given: Plane Figure Conclusion: In order for you to say that a point B is between two points A and C, all three points must lie on the same line, and AB + BC = AC. Slides 36 -39 Given: Plane Figure Conclusion: C: CD + DR = CR
Using Segment Addition Postulate, answer the following questions: Example 1: If DT = 60, find the value of x. Then find DS and ST.
Segment Addition Continued: Example 2: If EG = 100, find the value of x. Then find EF and FG.
Example 3: Using the Segment Addition Postulate M is between N and O. Find NO. 27
Example 4: Draw a picture and solve for the missing segment. B is between A and C, AC = 14 and BC = 11.4. Find. AB
Example 5: Draw a picture and solve for the missing segment. Find RT if S is between R and T. RS = 2x + 7, ST = 28 and RT = 4x.
