Solution

To solve this problem, we will analyze the relationship between points A, B, and C based on the information given. We know that point C lies between points A and B and that AC = BC.

1. ### Break Down the Problem

We need to determine the correct expression for AC in relation to AB, given that AC = BC.

2. ### Relevant Concepts

Let:

  • A A be the position of point A,
  • B B be the position of point B,
  • C C be the position of point C.

Since C is between A and B, we can express the distances as:

  • AC=x AC = x
  • BC=x BC = x

From this, we can express the total distance AB as: AB=AC+BC=x+x=2x AB = AC + BC = x + x = 2x

3. ### Analysis and Detail

We need to relate AC AC to AB AB . Since AB=2x AB = 2x , we can express AC AC in terms of AB AB : AC=x=12(AB) AC = x = \frac{1}{2}(AB) So, we know that AC AC is half of AB AB .

4. ### Verify and Summarize

We found that: AC=12AB AC = \frac{1}{2}AB Thus, the correct option from the choices given is AC=12AB AC = \frac{1}{2}AB .

Final Answer

The correct relationship is: AC=12AB AC = \frac{1}{2}AB
