Question

ch. 1.2 - segment addition postulate
use the number line below to answer each of the questions.
bd =
af =
cg =
be =

Explanation:

Step1: Find coordinates of B and D

B = - 6, D=-2

Step2: Calculate BD

BD=| - 2-( - 6)|=4

Step3: Find coordinates of A and F

A=-10, F = 4

Step4: Calculate AF

AF=|4-( - 10)| = 14

Step5: Find coordinates of C and G

C=-4, G = 8

Step6: Calculate CG

CG=|8-( - 4)|=12

Step7: Find coordinates of B and E

B=-6, E = 0

Step8: Calculate BE

BE=|0-( - 6)|=6

Answer:

BD = 4
AF = 14
CG = 12
BE = 6
