उत्तर

AB = 5 cm, AC = 9 cm and BC = 11 cm   …(Given)

In ∆ABC,

Points X and Y are the midpoints of sides AB and BC respectively.      ...(Given)

∴ XY = `1/2` AC     ...(From midpoint theorem)

∴ XY = `1/2xx 9`

∴ XY = 4.5 cm

In ∆ABC,

Points Y and Z are the midpoints of sides BC and AC respectively.     ...(Given)

∴ YZ = `1/2` AB     ...(From midpoint theorem)

∴ YZ = `1/2xx 5`

∴ YZ = 2.5 cm

In ∆ABC,

Points X and Z are the midpoints of lines AB and AC respectively.      ...(Given)

∴ XZ = `1/2` BC    ...(From midpoint theorem)

∴ XZ = `1/2xx 11`

∴ XZ = 5.5 cm
