Answer:

True

Explanation:

We are given that

If LM=MP

Then M must be the midpoint of LP.

We have to find it is true or false and explain.

We know that

Mid-Point:Mid point is that point of a line which divide the line into two equal parts.

Suppose , M is the midpoint of LP

Then, LM=MP

If LM=MP

Then, M is the midpoint of LP by definition of mid point.

Hence, the given statement is true.
