Question

Find the midpoint of diagonal BD. A. (1, 3.5) B. (1.5, 4) C. (2, 3.5) D. (2, 4)

Answer 1

Another way to solve this problem and get the right answer is simply finding the middle number between the 2 x-coordinates and find the middle number between the 2 y-coordinates: (0,6) and (3,2)

The middle number between 0 and 3= 1.5

The middle number between 6 and 2= 4

Therefore, the coordinate would be= (1.5,4)

Answer 2

The answer is letter B. (1.5, 4)

The midpoint can be solved using the equation:
[(x1 +x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/ 2]
[(0 + 3)/2 , (6 + 2)/ 2 ]
(1.5 , 4)
