If point F is the midpoint of segment DE, which statement is true?

Segment DF is one-half the length of segment FE

Segment DF is one-half the length of segment DE.

Segment DF is longer than segment FE.

Segment DF is longer than segment DE.

Answer:

Segment DF is one-half the length of segment DE.

Explanation:

Given:

DE is the segment and F is the midpoint of the segment DE.

In below figure the segment DF and FE is equal because point F is the midpoint of the segment DE.

And the length of the segment DF is one-half the length of the segment DE.

Therefore, the second statement (Segment DF is one-half the length of segment DE) is true.
