Question

Y is the midpoint of WZ. X is the midpoint of WY . XY =2. What is the length of WZ?

Answer 1

Using the given information, the length of WZ is 8

Length of a line

From the question, we are to find the length of WZ

From the given information,

Y is the midpoint of WZ

and

X is the midpoint of WY

First,

We will create a line that models the given description

W             X                Y                                 Z

                         2

From the given information,

XY = 2

Since X is the midpoint of WY

Then,

WX = XY

∴ WX = 2

Thus

WY = WX + XY

WY = 2 + 2

WY = 4

Also,

Y is the midpoint of WZ

Then,

WY = YZ

∴ YZ = 4

Thus,

WZ = WY + YZ

WZ = 4 + 4

WZ = 8

Hence, the length of WZ is 8
