Answer to Problem 8WE
D and E are midpoints of the large triangle.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The triangle is shown below:
Calculation:
Consider large triangle as ABC .
Here, line DE is parallel to line FC . Also, line DE is parallel to line BC .
D is the midpoint of BA .
Hence, according to the midpoint theorem, line DE is parallel to line BC and D is the midpoint of BA then E must be the midpoint of like AC . Also, DF is not parallel to EC . So, F is not the midpoint of line BC
Thus, D and E are midpoints of the large triangle.
