Q18. - Geometry

Question

In the following diagram $\overline{HL}$ and $\overleftrightarrow{KT}$ intersect at the midpoint of $\overline{HL}$. Classify the following statement as true or false. 

 

$M$ is between $K$ and $T$.

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The statement “$M$ is between $K$ and $T$” is true.

Step 1. Check the figure.

Consider the figure.

Step 2. Step description.

Here, $M$ is on the line segment of $\overline{KT}$.

Step 3. Step description.

Since the point $M$ is on the line segment of $\overline{KT}$ thus $M$ is between $K$ and $T$.

 

Therefore, the statement is true.

 

Therefore, the statement “$M$ is between $K$ and $T$” is true.
