Points D, C and E lie on the line segment AB. Point D is the midpoint of segment AC and point E is the midpoint of segment CB. The distance between points D and E is 16 cm. Find the length of the line segment AB.
1) Let us find out what is the distance between points A and D, E and B, if it is known that the distance between points D and E is 16 cm and point D divides the segment AC in half, and point E divides the segment CB in half.
16/2 = 8 cm.
2) Let’s find out what distance the points A and B have, if it is known that the segment AB consists of 4 segments 8 cm long.
8 * 4 = 32 cm.
Answer: The distance between points A and B is 32 cm.
