If X is the midpoint of AB, then AX=BX by definition of a midpoint.

How to determine the justification of x

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

x is the midpoint of ab

If X is the midpoint of AB, then AX=BX by definition of a midpoint.

The definition of a midpoint of a segment AB is that it is a point that divides AB into two segments with equal lengths.

So, since X is the midpoint of AB, it follows that AX=BX.
