If AC plus CB equals AB and AC is equal to CB, then point C is the midpoint of segment AB. This means that point C divides the segment AB into two equal parts, making AC equal to CB. Therefore, point C is located exactly halfway between points A and B.

If CB is the hypotenuse, then AB measures, √ (62 - 52) = √ 11 = 3.3166 (4dp) If AB is the hypotenuse then it measures, √ (62 + 52) = √ 61 = 7.8102 (4dp)
the midpoint of AB.
If point C is between points A and B, then the segment AC plus the segment CB equals the total distance AB. In other words, AC + CB = AB. Therefore, if we denote the distances as AC and CB, the equation simplifies to AC + CB = AB.
C is not on the line AB.
C is the midpoint of Ab . then AC = BC. So AC= CB.
the midpoint of
between A and B
The real answer is Bc . Hate these @
C is not on the line AB.
If point C is between points A and B, then the distance AC plus the distance CB equals the distance AB. This can be expressed mathematically as AC + CB = AB. It illustrates the segment addition postulate in geometry, which states that the sum of the lengths of segments on a line equals the length of the entire segment.

ac + cb = ab = 9 2x - 1 + 3x = 9 5x -1 = 9 So 5x = 10 Thereby x =2. Also ac = 3 and cb = 6
To find the length of segment AB, you simply add the lengths of segments AC and CB together. Since AC is 8 cm and CB is 6 cm, the length of AB is 8 cm + 6 cm = 14 cm. Therefore, segment AB is 14 cm long.
