Question

The endpoints of VW are V (0, 4) and W (2, 8). Find the coordinates of the midpoint M.

Coordinates of midpoint M: (.)

Answer 1

The midpoint of a line segment is the point that is exactly halfway between the endpoints. To find the coordinates of the midpoint, we need to average the x-coordinates and the y-coordinates.

M=(0+2)/2, (4+8)/2)

M=(1, 6)
