To solve the problem step by step, we will first identify the points and distances involved in the car's journey. ### Step 1: Identify the Points and Distances - Let point A be the starting point. - Point B is the endpoint of the first leg of the journey. - Point C is the midpoint of segment AB. - According to the problem, the distance AB = 10 cm and since 2BC = AB, we can deduce that BC = 5 cm. ...
