Answer:

Explanation:

We will use to midsegment theorem to solve this question.

Midsegment theorem,

Segment joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle, is parallel and and measure the half of the the third side.

7). HE is the midsegment.

HE =
(1)/(2)(VU)

=
(1)/(2)* (80)

= 40

8). ED =
(1)/(2)* (TV)

=
(1)/(2)(100)

= 50

9). HD =
(1)/(2)(TU)

TU = 2(HD)

= 2(80)

= 160

10). TE =
(1)/(2)(TU)

=
(1)/(2)* 160

= 80
