Answer:

• c = 2
• segments 10, 8, 6 (top down)

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of top and bottom bases is twice the midsegment.

  (c² +6) +(c² +2) = 2(4c)

  2c² -8c +8 = 0 . . . . . . . . . subtract 8c

  2(c -2)² = 0 . . . . . . . . factor

  c = 2 . . . . . . the value that makes the binomial be zero

The value of c is 2; the segment lengths (top-down) are 10, 8, 6.
