Geometry problem

Question

the coordinates of R is 10. t is the mid midpoint of RS and W is the midpoint of RT. If the length of WT is 5, find the coordinates of W, T, S.

Answer 1

These kind of problems you have to draw a figure. Im using a straight line and filling in the letters. Hope this helps!

____________________

R W T S

---5--- They told us from WT it is a length of 5

R= 10 (given)

W: 10+5= 15

Since W is a midpoint of RT. T: 15+5= 20

T is the midpoint of RS we add 10. S: 20+10= 30

W=15

T=20

S=30

Answer 2

To start this, label the given information on a numberline:

<……………R….…..…W<… 5 …>T……………………..…S……………>                    

             10

Since W is midpoint of RT, we know RW is also 5:

<……………R<… 5…>W<… 5 …>T……………………..…S……………>                    

             10

Similarly since T is midpoint of RS, then TS is 10:

<……………R<… 5…>W<… 5 …>T<……… 10 ………>S……………>                    

             10

Now we can label the points by adding the respective lengths:

<……………R<… 5…>W<… 5 …>T<……… 10 ………>S……………>                    

          10            15           20                        30                 

R = 10 W = 15 T = 20 S = 30 Answers

(Hopefully the formatting will show up as I put it)
