If we subtract the difference between their lengths from the total length of two segments, we get 145 – 25 = 120 mm, which is twice the length of the smaller segment;
The length of the smaller segment is 120/2 = 60 mm, and the length of the larger segment is 60 + 25 = 85 mm
Answer: The lengths of the segments are 85 and 60 mm.
