What is the definition of a midpoint in geometry?

Back

The midpoint of a line segment is the point that divides the segment into two equal parts.

Front

How do you find the midpoint of a line segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

The midpoint M is calculated as M = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2).

What is the Angle Addition Postulate?

Back

The Angle Addition Postulate states that if point B is in the interior of angle AOC, then the measure of angle AOB plus the measure of angle BOC equals the measure of angle AOC.

If RT = 36 and RT is divided into two segments, how do you find the length of each segment?

Back

You can set up an equation based on the lengths of the segments and solve for the unknowns.

Front

What is the formula for finding the length of a line segment between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

The length L is given by L = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).

What is the significance of the number 5 in the context of line segment NM?

Back

It indicates the length of the segment NM, which is 5 units.

Front

How do you write an equation to model the lengths of segments?

Back

You can express the total length as a sum of the lengths of the individual segments and set it equal to the total length.
