how to verify mid point theroum using paper cutting and pasting activity?
Mid-point theorem can be verified using paper cutting and pasting method as follows:
1. Cut a triangle from a piece of paper and name it as ABC.
2. Mark the mid points, D and E of the two sides of this triangle say AB and AC respectively.
2. Join D and E.
3. Measure the lengths of the line segments DE and BC, you will find that DE = BC.
4. Also, measure the angle ADE and angle ABC, you will find that both these angles are equal, which means that DE || BC.
Thus, mid-pointy theorem is verified.
