connects two midpoints of a triangle
I think it's called a vertice, and there are 3 vertices in a triangle. -- WRONGCORRECTION- it is NOT called a vertice. A vertice is each angle point, there ARE three vertices in a triangle but they the point of each angle.Now, a segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is called a mid-segment. There are three mid-segments in a triangle.Go here for more info* http://regentsprep.org/Regents/math/geometry/GP10/MidLineL.htm *
If a segment bisects one side of a triangle and is parallel to another side, it bisects the third side as well.

The mid-point
The base of the triangle equals (2x) the mid-segment, so.... 12/2 = 2x/2 6= x
connects two midpoints of a triangle
By using a pair of compasses or depending on what type of triangle it is creating a perpendicular line from one of its vertices to its opposite side.

A segment that connects two midpoints of a polygon.
In normal metric spaces a line segment cannot have two mid points.
The mid-point
Look for the two sides which are parallel. You will find the mid segment halfway between the two sides.
Mid line segment.
