Three push-pins (tacks) are pushed onto a cork board in a line (P then Q then R). Pin P is 4.4 cm from Pin Q. Pin R is 12.2 cm from Pin Q. How much string would be needed to reach from Pin P to Pin R and back to Pin Q?
28.8 cm of string is needed.
Give the coordinate of the midpoint (5,2) on a segment with one endpoint at coordinate (3,1), what is the other endpoint?
(7,3)
The point that is between and equidistant from the endpoints of any given line segment.
Midpoint

10 UNITS
Bisector means...
A line, ray, or plane that divides a geometric object (like an angle or line segment) into two equal parts
Marcus is hanging a picture in his apartment. The wall (segment AC) he is hanging it on is 10 feet wide. Marcus wants the left side of the picture to sit at a point (B) so that the ratio of AB to BC is 2:3. What distance from the left side of the wall should Marcus place the left side of the picture?
4 feet
Given the endpoints of a segment (5, 2) & (−4, −3), find the midpoint.
(1/2, -1/2)
When two geometric figures (i.e. segments, sides) are identical in shape and size is called...
Congruent
On a number line, what is the length of the segment with endpoints at 36, and -22?
58 UNITS
Fractional Distance
The location of a point along a line segment, expressed as a fraction (or ratio) of the total distance between the two endpoints.
Mr. McBride wants to get a coffee on his way to the grocery store. Mr. McBride lives at (-4,8), while the grocery store is located at (20,4). Find the location of "The Coffee Pot" if it is 1/2 the distance from Mr. McBride's house to the grocery store.
(8,6)
Given an endpoint of a line segment (−1, 9), and the midpoint of (−9, −10), find the other endpoint.
(−17, −29)
This is a flat, two-dimensional surface that extends infinitely in all directions.
Plane
What is the length of the line segment in the coordinate plane whose endpoints are (0,0) and (-5,5)?
5 on the square root of 2
Segment Addition Postulate states:
Given a segment (AC) with point (B) lying on the segment, AB + AC = AC
Given: Point (H) is the midpoint of line segment (GI). The length of (GH) is 14x - 6 yards and the length of (HI) is 4(x+1) yards.
What is the length of line segment (GI)?
x = 1; SO the length of segment (GI) is 16 yards.

100 INCHES
Origin
In a Cartesian coordinate system, it's the point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.
