Check the picture below.
let's recall that the midsegment of a triangle is the segment that's half-way to both endsides and is at the same time parallel to the 3rd side, is also half the length of the parallel side, so-called the base.
so, for example, we know L, M and N are midpoints to each segment, that means that LM is a midsegment and parallel to PR and also half the length of PR, same is true for LN and MN.
We can take the two points given and plug them into the slope formula.
