Name:___________________________________ Date:__________ Chapter 6: Similar Triangles Topic 3: Midsegment in Triangles Period:_______ Do Now: You will need a compass and a straightedge. 1.) We are going to construct a midsegment of a triangle. (a) Given triangle ABC, construct the midpoints of AB and AC and label them as X and Y respectively. (b) Draw midsegment XY. (1) Compare <AXY to <ABC and compare <AYX to <ACB. Without using a protractor what would guess the relationship between these two pairs of angles is? (2) What does that imply about the relationship between XY and BC? Vocabulary: A _____________________________ of a triangle is formed by connecting the _____________________________ of two sides of a triangle. The _____________________________ of a triangle is _____________________________ to the third side of the triangle and it is _____________________ the length of the third side. DE is the midsegment of if ________________________________ ________________________________ Examples: Apply what you know about the properties of midsegments to solve the following questions. 1.) Using the diagram below of 2.) QR is a midsegment in ? , find the value of x and the perimeter of quadrilateral MAHB. , QR = 14, BQ = 11, and CR = 9. What is the length of AC and the perimeter of 3.) SP is a midsegment of . Use the diagram below to answer the following questions. (a) What is the measure of <GPS? (b) What is the measure of <DSP? 4.) MT is a midsegment of . Use the diagram below to answer the following questions. (a) What is the measure of <O? (b) What is the measure of <E? (c) What is the measure of <TMO? 5.) CA, AT, and TC are midsegments in ∆DOG. If CA = 8, CT = 10, and AT = 5, what is the perimeter of ∆DOG? 6.) ST, TU, and SU are midsegments in ∆QRS. If CP = 11, QR = 15, and PR = 20, what is the perimeter of ∆STU?
