Question

Show that the statement is true. If JK has endpoints J(−2, 1) and K(4, 3), and LN has endpoints L(0, 3) and N(2, 1) then JK and LN have the same midpoint.

Answer 1

Answer:

yes they both have the same midpoint of (1,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

For the midpoint of JK

$(\frac{-2+4}{2}, \frac{1+3}{2} )$

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

(1,2)

then for LN

$(\frac{0+2}{2}, \frac{3+1}{2} )$

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

(1,2)
