given:
The perimeter of is yards.
The length of is ¯???? the length of ¯.(I think you put by mistake)
is probably the length of , I will go with that


=>
The line is the midline of . And the segment is the midsegment of .
so,
=>
=>
=>
=>
=>


=>
=>

since given that is the length of
=>
=>
then =>=>=>

answer:





check the perimeter:
