Analyze the diagram below and complete the instructions that follow. If BA is a midsegment of AXYZ, find x.
A. 5
B. 6
C. 10
D 12

Explanation:

Since AB is the midsegment, this means AB is half as long as YZ.

Put another way, YZ is twice as long as AB.

So,

2*AB = YZ

2*(x-1) = 10

x-1 = 10/2

x-1 = 5

x = 5+1

x = 6
