A line that connects the midpoints of a figure is a midsegment.
True. The midsegment of a trapezoid is indeed the segment that connects the midpoints of the non-parallel sides (legs) of the trapezoid. This segment is parallel to the bases and its length is the average of the lengths of the two bases.
To determine the length of segment KL in a trapezoid, you need to know the lengths of the bases and the height, or apply the trapezoid midsegment formula if you're looking for the length of the midsegment. The midsegment (which connects the midpoints of the non-parallel sides) can be calculated as the average of the lengths of the two bases: ( KL = \frac{(base_1 + base_2)}{2} ). If you provide the specific measurements of the trapezoid, I can give a more precise answer.

To determine which line segment could be a midsegment of triangle ABC, look for the line segment that connects the midpoints of two sides of the triangle. The midsegment will be parallel to the third side and its length will be half that of the third side. If you have specific line segments to consider, check if they meet these criteria.
Both the median and the midsegment are concepts in geometry that involve division of a triangle. A median connects a vertex of a triangle to the midpoint of the opposite side, effectively dividing the triangle into two equal areas. A midsegment, on the other hand, connects the midpoints of two sides of a triangle, creating a segment that is parallel to the third side and half its length. Both concepts emphasize relationships between triangle sides and areas, highlighting symmetry and balance within the triangle's structure.
When yo connect the midpoints of THE SIDES OF squares you get a square.
connects two midpoints of a triangle
A segment that connects two midpoints of a polygon.
The straight line does not have a specific name.
It is called the median.
A trapezoid is a 4 sided quadrilateral with a pair of opposite parallel lines of different lengths.
