Question

Find the coordinates of point Q.

Answer 1

Q(2, 6 )

Explanation:

Using the midpoint formula

let the coordinates of Q = (x, y ), then

0.5(x + 10) = 6 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

x + 10 = 12 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

x = 2

and

0.5(y + 6) = 6 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

y + 6 = 12 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

y = 6

Coordinates of Q = (2, 6 )
