Use length and midpoint of a segment. 

Objective

Aug 20­2:48 PM

A ruler can be used to measure the distance between two points. A point corresponds to one and only one number on a ruler. The number is called a coordinate. The following postulate summarizes this concept.

The distance between any two points is the absolute value of the difference of the coordinates.  If the coordinates of points A and B are a and b, then the distance between A and B is |a – b| or |b – a|.  The distance between A and B is also called the length of AB, or AB.

Congruent segments are segments that have the same length. In the diagram, PQ = RS, so you can write PQ ≅ RS. This is read as “segment PQ is congruent to segment RS.” Tick marks are used in a figure to show congruent segments.

In order for you to say that a point B is between two points A and C, all three points must lie on the same line, and AB + BC = AC.

The midpoint M of AB is the point that bisects, or divides, the segment into two congruent segments. If M is the midpoint of AB, then AM = MB.  So if AB = 6, then AM = 3 and MB = 3.
