Question

Can someone please help?

Answer 1

Answer:

Well a midpoint makes the cutter segment or Line in exactly in half. So the two lines cutted are equal. In this case t is the midpoint. PT and TQ are equal. So you have two expressions, make then equal to each other since they are congruent.

6x+4=8x-8

12=2x

x=6

Now PT is 6x+4

So we subsitute x for 6 since x=6

6*6+4

40

PT is 40
