The base of the trapezoid is 17 and 19. Find the larger of the line segments into which one of its diagonals divides the middle line of this trapezoid

The solution of the problem:
Since the diagonal of a trapezoid divides it into two triangles, in which the middle lines make up the middle line of the trapezoid (the middle line of the triangle is equal to half of it). Therefore, the larger segment of the middle line will be equal to:
19/2 = 9.5
Answer: 9.5
