Question

Find the midpoint of the line segment with end coordinates of: ( − 4 , 8 ) and ( 4 , − 2 )

Answer 1

The midpoint is (0,3)

Explanation:

To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, add the x coordinates of the endpoint and divide by 2

(-4+4)/2 = 0/2 =0

To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, add the y coordinates of the endpoint and divide by 2

(8+-2)/2 = 6/2 =3

The midpoint is (0,3)
