I CAN: Find the length of a line segment given the coordinates of the endpoints. Correctly use the term congruent (≅) and use tick marks to identify congruent segments. Recite and use the Segment Addition Postulate to find segment lengths. Use midpoints and segment bisectors to find segment lengths.
