Objectives: Develop and use formulas for the sums of the measures of interior and exterior angles of polygons Warm-Up: Seven & eleven are both odd numbers. Your task is to make them both even without performing a mathematical operation. 7 11
a segment whose endpoints are the midpoints of the two sides Mid-segment of a Triangle:
If a segment joins the midpoints of two sides of a triangle, then the segment is parallel to the third side, and is half its length. Triangle Mid-Segment Conjecture:
In triangle DEF, A, B, and C are midpoints. Name pairs of parallel segments.
Find DE
Find AB
D and E are midpoints. Find the measure of <A.
In Triangle EFG, H, J, and K are midpoints. Find HJ, JK, and FG.
Given DE, DF, and FE are the lengths of mid-segments. Find the perimeter of triangle ABC.
Find DE
