Question

31. The coordinates of the endpoints of a segment are given. Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment. G(-7, 7), H(-1, 7)

Answer 1

To find the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment with endpoints G(-7, 7) and H(-1, 7), we can use the midpoint formula:

Midpoint = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2)

where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the endpoints.

Plugging in the values, we get:

Midpoint = ((-7 + (-1))/2, (7 + 7)/2)

Midpoint = (-8/2, 14/2)

Midpoint = (-4, 7)

Therefore, the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment GH are (-4, 7).
