Aimee constructed GF←→
, a line segment bisector of AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
, which passes through point C
. If AB=4
units, what is AC
?
Since GF←→ is a line segment bisector of AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯, it divides AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ into two congruent parts. Therefore, AC is equal to half of AB.
AC = AB/2
Since AB is of length 4 units, AC is equal to 4/2 = 2 units.
To find AC, we need to divide AB (4 units) by 2 since GF is a line segment bisector. This is because a line segment bisector divides the line segment into two equal parts.
So, AC = AB/2 = 4/2 = 2 units.
Therefore, AC is equal to 2 units.
