Question

Points A B C and D lie on a line consecutively so that AB = BC = CD = 6in. Find the distance between the midpoints of segments AB and CD.

Answer 1

its 12

Explanation:

Distance of segments AB and CD = 12

Answer 2

Distance of segments AB and CD = 12

Explanation:

AB+BC + CD = 6+6+6 = 18inch

midpoint AB = 6/2 = 3

midpoint CD =6/2 = 3

Midpoint AB+Midpoint CD = 3+3 = 6

To solve we just 18-6 = 12

Distance of segments AB and CD = 12
