Question

Which statement holds for midpoint theorem?
1) The line segment joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is not parallel
to the third side.
2) The line segment joining the midpoints of one side of a triangle is parallel to
the second and third side of a triangle.
3) The line segment joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to
the third side.
4) The line drawn through the midpoint of one side of a triangle, parallel to
another side bisects the third side.​

Answer 1

Answer:

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.”

So the third one is correct.
