Question
If A, B, and C are three points on a line such that AB = 5 cm, BC = 3 cm, and AC = 8 cm, which one of them lies between the other two?
Solution
Given- AB = 5, BC = 3, AC = 8
Here AB + BC = 5 + 3 = 8 = AC
Hence point B is lies between two points A and C.

Draw any line segment, say `overline"AB"`. Take any point C lying in between A and B. Measure the lengths of AB, BC, and AC. Is AB = AC + CB?
[Note: If A, B, and C are any three points on a line such that AC + CB = AB, then we can be sure that C lies between A and B.]
Verify, whether D is the midpoint of `overline"AG"`.
