Verify, whether $ \mathrm{D} $ is the mid point of $ \overline{\mathrm{AG}} $.
"
Given:
\( \mathrm{D} \) is the mid point of \( \overline{\mathrm{AG}} \).
To do:
We have to verify the above statement.
Solution:
From the figure,
Distance between A and D $=AD=3$ units
Distance between D and G $=DG=3$ units
Therefore, \( \mathrm{D} \) is the mid point of \( \overline{\mathrm{AG}} \).
