To find: The length of TM .
Answer to Problem 4CE
The length of TM is 8 units.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The triangle is shown below:
Side ZN is 8 units. M , N and T are the midpoints.
Calculation:
Consider in
Angle XMT and XYZ are the corresponding
Consider in triangles NMY and ZXY .
Angle YNM and YZX are the corresponding angles. Hence, line NM and ZX or ZT are parallel to each other.
Thus, MNZT is parallelogram.
The side TM is calculated as follows:
Thus, the length of TM is 8 units.
