Overview

The mid-point theorem is one of the most important and frequently used theorems in geometry. It establishes a fundamental relationship between the mid-points of two sides of a triangle and the third side. This chapter explores both the mid-point theorem and its converse, along with the equal interce

Key Concepts

The line segment joining the mid

The line segment joining the mid-points of any two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and is equal to half of it. If D and E are mid-po

The straight line drawn through

The straight line drawn through the mid-point of one side of a triangle parallel to another side bisects the third side. If D is the mid-point of side

If a transversal makes equal intercepts

If a transversal makes equal intercepts on three or more parallel lines, then any other line cutting them will also make equal intercepts. This theore

Mid

Mid-point theorems have extensive applications in quadrilaterals. Key results include: (1) Joining mid-points of adjacent sides of any quadrilateral f
