Question

Find the midpoint of the segment with the following endpoints (8,5) and (0,-1)

Answer 1

Answer:

$(4,2 )$

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint Formula: $(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} ,\frac{y_1+y_2}{2} )$

Simply plug in your 2 coordinates into the midpoint formula to find midpoint:

$(\frac{8+0}{2} ,\frac{5-1}{2} )$

$(\frac{8}{2} ,\frac{4}{2} )$

$(4,2 )$
