Never. The segment that joints the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to and one-half the measure of the third side of the triangle. Hence, the three mid-point joiners will sum to one-half the perimeter of the original triangle. Look up the Midpoint Theorem; it will be in your Geometry book.
