Answer:

third option: PQ = 1/4(YZ)

Step-by-step explanation:

By the Midsegment Theorem, a midsegment is 1/2 the side across it. Using this, we can say:

In triangle XYZ, AB = 1/2(YZ)

And in triangle XAB, PQ = 1/2(AB)

We can substitute AB into the second equation to get:

PQ = 1/2(1/2(YZ))

PQ = 1/4(YZ)

This is the third option.
