Point C was marked on segment AB. The distance between the midpoints of segments AC

Point C was marked on segment AB. The distance between the midpoints of segments AC and BC is 12 cm. What is the length of segment AB?

To solve this problem, we introduce two conditional variables “X” and “Y”, through which we denote the distance between the midpoints of the segments AC and BC. As a result, we get X + Y = 12 centimeters. Therefore, the length of the entire segment AB is equal to 2 (X + Y). This means that the length of the entire segment AB will be equal to 2 x 12 = 24 centimeters. Answer: the length of the entire segment AB is 24 centimeters.
