This is a contradiction unless C and D coincide. Therefore our assumption that a line segment AB has two midpoints is incorrect. Thus every line segment has one and only one midpoint.

Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose C and C' are two mid points of segment AB.
Then AC = AB.
and AC' = AB.
AC = AC' [Things which are equal to the same thing are equal to one another.]
This is possible only when C and C' coincide.
Hence every line segment has one and only one midpoint.
