Question

3. Solve the following midsegment problems below: IF L, M, and N are the midpoints of the sides of APOR, PR = 46, PQ = 40, and LN = 17, find each measure a) LM = b) MN- P c) OR = R d) MR =

Answer 1

- Since LM=PR/2 then it follows that LM=46/2=23

- Since MN=PQ/2 then MN=40/2=20

- Since QR=2MR=2LN then QR=2(17)=34

- Since MR=LN then MR=17
