Question

name the segment that is parallel to the given segment. kl

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the mid - segment theorem

In a triangle, the mid - segment (a segment connecting the mid - points of two sides of a triangle) is parallel to the third side.

Step2: Identify the mid - segment and the third side

In triangle \(ABC\), \(K\) is the mid - point of \(AC\) (since the marks on \(AC\) show two equal parts) and \(L\) is the mid - point of \(AB\) (since the marks on \(AB\) show two equal parts). The segment \(KL\) is a mid - segment. The side parallel to the mid - segment \(KL\) is \(CB\) (by the mid - segment theorem of a triangle).

Answer:

\(\overline{CB}\)
