Theorem… Theorem 5-1: Triangle Midsegment Theorem 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 Midsegment of a Triangle: a segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle
3
Finding Lengths In, H, J, and K are midpoints. Find HJ, JK, and FG. AB = 10 and CD = 26. Find EB, BC, and AC.
4
Parallel Segments In, A, B, and C are midpoints. Name the pairs of parallel segments. *What theorem justifies that the lines are parallel?
5
Parallel Segments Find and. Justify your answer. If XY = 3x + 2 and UV = 16, find the value of x.
6
Real Life is a new bridge being built over a lake as shown. Find the length of the bridge. How long is the bridge in miles?
