Understanding Midpoints and Medial Triangles in Geometry

This document explores the relationships between midpoints of a triangle and their consequences using segments defined by midpoints. Given points A, B, and C, we denote midpoints X, Y, and Z. We establish equalities like AX = BX, AZ = CZ, and BY = CY, which reveal how these midpoints divide the sides of triangle ABC. The document incorporates properties of congruence and similarity, demonstrating relationships through the Medial Triangle Theorem and various equality properties. This study highlights the critical concepts in triangle geometry and their proofs.
