Answer:

Net

Explanation:

We know that,

For any two points, the point equidistant ( or having same distance ) from them is the point which lie on the perpendicular bisector of the segment between them.

Now, when we draw a line segment having the mid-points of the baselines as their end-points, the perpendicular bisector will be the line that is at right angles to the baselines.

This line will be located exactly at the middle of the two points.

On a tennis court, this line is represented by a net.

Hence, the part equidistant from the mid-points of the two baseline is the net.
