Why can't a line segment only have one midpoint?
a line segment has only one midpoint "C" but the two sections AC and CE can have their own midpoint "B" and "D" and so on... A B C D E
Does a segment have a line of symmetry?
actually it does b/c its so cool it rotates the line
The length of the segment from a point C to the line AB gives the distance from the point C to the line AB?
perpendicular by Deviin Mayweather of Boyd Anderson
To find the distance from a point C to the line AB you must find the length of the segment from C to AB?
perpendicular
How do you divide a triangle into 2 triangles and 2 trapezoids?
Let's assume the triangle has points A, B, and C. Method 1 (3 lines) Draw two lines across the triangle parallel to line segment AB. Now you have two trapezoids and one triangle. Draw another line from C to the any point on the closest of the two lines you just drew, splitting the triangle into two more triangles. Method 2 (2 lines) Draw one line across the triangle parallel to line segment AB. Now you have one trapezoid and one triangle. Draw a second line that passes through C and is perpendicular to AB, splitting the trapezoid into two trapezoids and the triangle into 2 triangles. Method 3 (3 lines) Draw one line from point C to any point on line segment AB. Then draw a line parallel to AC and one parallel to BC, but don't let them cross the line you just drew.
