    This lesson was about using midpoints and segment bisectors to find segment lengths on a number line or line segment. Key concepts covered included using the properties that the midpoint divides a segment into two congruent parts and that the bisector of a segment forms two congruent triangles. Students practiced applying these concepts to find values of variables, segment lengths, and justifying their answers. The challenge problem had students represent a segment algebraically and use that to find lengths based on being given one value.
