Question

use the figure below. o is between m and p, and n is the mid - point of mo. if no = 4 and mp = 16, find op.

Explanation:

Step1: Find length of MO

Since N is the mid - point of MO and NO = 4, then MO = 2×NO.
$MO = 2\times4=8$

Step2: Find length of OP

We know that MP = 16 and MO = 8. Also, MP=MO + OP. So, we can find OP by subtracting MO from MP.
$OP=MP - MO$
$OP = 16 - 8$
$OP = 8$

Answer:

8
