Question

rectangle mm
image of a line segment with points w, y, x; wy and yx are marked as equal, and wx is 8.8 mm

Explanation:

Step1: Identify Segment Relationships

The segment \( WX \) is 8.8 mm, and \( Y \) is the midpoint (since there are two equal segments marked), so \( WY = YX \).

Step2: Calculate \( WY \)

Since \( WY + YX = WX \) and \( WY = YX \), we have \( 2 \times WY = 8.8 \). Solving for \( WY \), divide both sides by 2: \( WY = \frac{8.8}{2} = 4.4 \).

Answer:

4.4
