Answer:
[tex]ML = 76\text{ feet}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Line LR bisects MN at point L, by the definition of bisector:
[tex]\overline{ML} \cong \overline{LN}[/tex]
We want to determine ML if MN measures 152 feet.
MN is the sum of ML and LN. Hence;
[tex]ML + LN = MN[/tex]
Since ML = LN and MN = 152:
[tex]ML + (ML) = (152)[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]2ML = 152[/tex]
And divide. Therefore:
[tex]ML = 76\text{ feet}[/tex]
In conclusion, ML measures 76 feet.
