Answer: Length of MC is 16 milimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

There is an equilateral triangle which has a perimeter of 96 milimeters.

As we know the formula for "Perimeter of equilateral triangle "

$Perimeter=3\times Side\\\\96=3\times Side\\\\\frac{96}{3}=Side\\\\32\ milimeter=Side$

Since a perpendicular bisector is drawn from angle A to side BC at point M.

As we know that perpendicular bisector divide the line segment into two equal parts .

So, Length of MC will be

$\frac{32}{2}=16\ milimeter$

Hence, Length of MC is 16 milimeters.
