triangle mid-segment theorem


Theorem.  The segment connecting the midpointsMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath of any two sides of a triangle is parallelMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath to the third side and is half as long.

ABCAB

Proof.  In the triangle ABC, let A be the midpoint of AC and B the midpoint of BC.  Using the side-vectors AC and CB as a basis (http://planetmath.org/Basis) of the plane, we calculate the mid-segment AB as a vector:

AB=AC+CB=12AC+12CB=12(AC+CB)=12AB

The last expression indicates that the segment AB is such as asserted.

Corollary (Varignon’s theorem).  If one connects the midpoints of the of a quadrilateralMathworldPlanetmath, one obtains a parallelogramMathworldPlanetmath.
