Question

if point m is midpoint of seg ab. if ab=8 then find the length of am

Answer 1

$\underline{\textsf{Given:}}$

$\textsf{M is the midpoint of line segment AB and AB=8}$

$\underline{\textsf{To find:}}$

$\textsf{Length of AM}$

$\underline{\textsf{Solution:}}$

$\mathsf{We\;know\;that,}$

$\textsf{The midpoint of the line segment divides two equal line segments}$

$\textsf{Since M is the midpoint of line segment AB,}$

$\mathsf{we\;have\;AM=BM}$

$\mathsf{But\,AB=8\;cm}$

$\mathsf{AM+BM=8}$

$\mathsf{AM+AM=8}$

$\mathsf{2\;AM=8}$

$\mathsf{AM=\dfrac{8}{2}}$

$\implies\boxed{\mathsf{AM=4\,cm}}$

Answer 2

GIVEN :-

• Point M is the mid point of seg AB.
• AB =8

TO FIND :-

find the length of AM

SOLUTION :-

M is the mid point of segment AB

➡️ AB=AM+MB=8

➡️ AM=MB

➡️ 2AM=8

➡️AM =

$\frac{8}{2} = 4units$
