Midsegment of a triangle
The question
cm
The midsegment
How it works.
midsegment=half the base
12× 2=24
x=24 cm
- 01
A midsegment joins the midpoints of two sides, and it is half the length of the third side — so the base is always twice the midsegment.
- 02
The midsegment is 12 cm, so the base is twice it: 12 × 2 = 24.
- 03
So x = 24 cm.
