If L is the midpoint of KM find the lengths of KL, LM, and KM
Question
Answer:
A midpoint is half way, so it divides the segment KM into two equal halves. In this problem segment KL will be equal to segment LM. 2x+1=3x-4
Subtract 2x from both sides
1=x-4
Add 4 to both sides
5=x
KL (2x+1)
Substitute the answer for x in expression
=2(5)+1
=10+1
=11
LM (3x-4)
=3(5)-4
=15-4
=11
KM
=KL+LM
=11+11
=22
The answer is D) 11, 11, 22
Hope this helps! :)
