Measuring Segments
Suppose the coordinate of P is 2, PQ 5 8, and PR 5 12. What are the possible
coordinates of the midpoint of the given segment?

Visualization Without using your ruler, sketch a segment with the
given length. Use your ruler to see how well your sketch approximates
the length provided. Check students’ work.
20. 5 cm
21. 8 in.
22. 8 cm
23. 12 cm
24. 85 mm
25. 5 in.
26. Suppose point J has a coordinate of 22 and JK 5 4. What are the possible
coordinates of point K? 26 and 2
27. Suppose point X has a coordinate of 5 and XY 5 10. What are the possible
coordinates of point Y? 15 or 25
Algebra Use the diagram at the right for Exercises 28–32.

29. If RO 5 6 1 x and OQ 5 2x 1 1, find the value of x.
Then find RO, OQ, and RQ. 5; RO 5 11; OQ 5 11; and RQ 5 22
30. If NO 5 3x 1 4 and NP 5 10x 2 10, find the value of x.
Then find NO, NP, and OP. 4.5; NO 5 17.5; OP 5 17.5; NP 5 35
31. If RO 5 5x and RQ 5 12x 2 20, find the value of x.
Then find RO, OQ, and RQ. 10; RO 5 50; OQ 5 50; and RQ 5 100
32. Vocabulary What term describes the relationship between NP and RQ?
They are segment bisectors of each other because they divide each other in half.
33. Reasoning If KL 5 5 and KJ 5 10, is it possible that LJ 5 5? Explain.
Yes; if L is between K and J, and L is on the segment KJ, then LJ 5 5.
