Point N is the midpoint of MO. Which of the following are true if MO=124 ft?
* 62 ft *******
* 96 ft
* 124 ft
* 248 ft
You're welcome, Jarzzapan.
MN = 62 ft.
Thank you Ms. Sue
Well, that's an interesting question! If N is indeed the midpoint of MO, then MO must be divided into two equal parts. So, if MO is 124 ft, then the length of MN would be half of that. Can you guess what that would be? Yup, you got it! It's 62 ft! So, the correct answer is 62 ft. Great job!
To determine which of the given options are true if MO = 124 ft and N is the midpoint, we need to understand what a midpoint is.
A midpoint is a point that divides a line segment into two equal parts. In this case, N is the midpoint of line segment MO, meaning that the distance from M to N is equal to the distance from N to O.
We can assume that MO is a straight line segment. So, to determine the length of MN, we can divide the length of MO by 2, since N is the midpoint.
If MO = 124 ft, then the length of MN would be 124 ft divided by 2, which is 62 ft.
Now, let's look at the given options:
- 62 ft: Since we determined that MN = 62 ft, this option is true.
- 96 ft: This length is not equal to MN, so this option is not true.
- 124 ft: This is the total length of MO, not the length of MN, so this option is not true.
- 248 ft: This length is double the total length of MO, so this option is not true.
Therefore, the correct answer is 62 ft.
