Answer:

Segment bisector = KL

IJ = 11⅓

Explanation:

Segment KL cuts segment IJ into two equal parts. Therefore the segment bisector of IJ is said to be segment KL.

Length of IJ:

From the figure given, the bisector divided the IJ into two equal parts. 1 part is given as 5⅔, therefore, the 2 parts joined together will give us lenght of IJ.

Thus, IJ = 2*5⅔ = 2 * 17/3 = 34/3 = 11⅓

Segment bisector = KL

IJ = 11⅓
