[color=#000000]In the applet below, the [/color][color=#ff7700][b]orange segment[/b][/color][color=#000000] that will eventually appear is said to be a [/color][color=#ff7700][b]midsegment of triangle. [/b][/color][color=#000000][br][br][/color][color=#000000]Interact with this applet for a few minutes, then answer the questions that follow. [br][/color][color=#000000]Be sure to change the locations of the triangle's 3 white vertices each time before re-sliding the slider! [/color]
[color=#000000][b]Questions:[/b][br][br]1) How would you define the term, [/color][color=#ff7700]"midsgement of a triangle"[/color][color=#000000]?[/color][color=#000000] Explain. What exactly is it? [br][br]2) After interacting with this applet, what two conclusions can you informally make about the [/color][color=#ff7700]midsegment of any triangle[/color][color=#000000]?[/color][color=#000000] List them. [br][br]3) Formally prove your two conclusions now using the format of a 2-column, paragraph, or coordinate geometry proof. [br][/color]
