Step-by-step explanation:
The midpoint theorem states that “The line segment in a triangle joining the midpoint of two sides of the triangle is said to be parallel to its third side and is also half of the length of the third side.”
Mid- Point Theorem
MidPoint Theorem Proof
If the line segment adjoins midpoints of any of the sides of a triangle, then the line segment is said to be parallel to all the remaining sides, and it measures about half of the remaining sides.
Consider the triangle ABC, as shown in the above figure,
Let E and D be the midpoints of the sides AC and AB. Then the line DE is said to be parallel to the side BC, whereas the side DE is half of the side BC; i.e.
DE∥BC
DE = (1/2 * BC).
Now consider the below figure,
Mid- Point Theorem
Construction- Extend the line segment DE and produce it to F such that, EF = DE.
In triangle ADE and CFE,
EC = AE —– (given)
∠CEF = ∠AED (vertically opposite angles)
EF = DE (by construction)
By SAS congruence criterion,
△ CFE ≅ △ ADE
Therefore,
∠CFE = ∠ADE {by c.p.c.t.}
∠FCE= ∠DAE {by c.p.c.t.}
and CF = AD {by c.p.c.t.}
∠CFE and ∠ADE are the alternate interior angles.
Assume CF and AB as two lines which are intersected by the transversal DF.
In a similar way, ∠FCE and ∠DAE are the alternate interior angles.
Assume CF and AB are the two lines which are intersected by the transversal AC.
Therefore, CF ∥ AB
So, CF ∥ BD
and CF = BD {since BD = AD, it is proved that CF = AD}
Thus, BDFC forms a parallelogram.
By the properties of a parallelogram, we can write
BC ∥ DF
and BC = DF
BC ∥ DE
and DE = (1/2 * BC).
Hence, the midpoint theorem is proved.

ANSWER
Mid point Theorem :
The line segment joining the mid points of any two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side.
Given :
A △ABC in which D and E are the mid points of AB and AC, respectively.
To prove :
DE∥BC.
Proof :
Since D and E are the mid points of AB and AC, respectively, we have AD=DB and AE=EC.
Therefore,
( each equal to 1 )
Therefore, by the converse of thales theorem, DE∥BC.
