Segment CD intersects line m. O is the middle of CD, point C is 16 cm away from line m, and D is 31 cm away from line m

Segment CD intersects line m. O is the middle of CD, point C is 16 cm away from line m, and D is 31 cm away from line m. At what distance from line m is point O?

First, let’s find out the length of the segment CD
16 + 31 = 47 (cm)
Now let’s divide 47 by two
47: 2 = 23.5
Since most of the segment lies between the intersection point and point D, point O will also lie in this part, so we subtract 16 from 23.5, we get 7.5
It is at this distance that point O is located relative to the straight line m
