The only way I can envision this is put all 4 points on 1 line segment. They go in the order of ADCB. I can only draw it this one way.
Given
D is the midpoint of AC
C is the midpoint of DB
AC = 3 cm
Argument
AC = 3 cm Given
AD = DC D is the midpoint of AC
AD = 3/2 Definition of a midpoint.
DC = 3/2 Definition of a midpoint
DC = 3/2 Last statement
DC + CB = 1.5 + 1.5. C is the midpoint of BD
DB = 3 Consolidation of equals
AD + DB = AB
1.5 + 3 = 4.5 Substitution.

The length of the segment AB is 4.5cm.
it is given that:
AC = 3 cm
D is the midpoint of AC
C is the midpoint of DB
What is a line segment?
A line segment is a part of a line that is bounded by two distinct endpoints and contains every point on the line that is between its endpoints.
So, AD=DC=3/2 =1.5
DC=CB=1.5
The arrangement will be like this:
A-----------D------------C-------------B
1.5 1.5 1.5
So, length of segment AB will be 1.5+1.5+1.5 =4.5cm
Therefore, the length of the segment AB is 4.5cm.
