Question

look at the diagram and evaluate. which of the statements below is false? answer lo > mn n is the midpoint of mo mn < lm ln > lm

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate lengths

$LO = 20 - 3=17$, $MN=14 - 8 = 6$, $LM = 8 - 3=5$, $LN=14 - 3 = 11$, $MO=20 - 8 = 12$

Step2: Check each option

• For $LO>MN$, since $17>6$, this is true.
• For $N$ is the mid - point of $\overline{MO}$, since $\frac{8 + 20}{2}=14$, this is true.
• For $MN5$ is false, this statement is false.
• For $LN>LM$, since $11>5$, this is true.

Answer:

MN < LM
