Question

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of HK if H (-1, 2) and K (-7, -4).

Answer 1

(-4, -1)

Explanation:

Given points:

• H (-1, 2) and K (-7, -4)

Midpoint coordinates are found using midpoint formula:

• x = (x1+x2)/2 = (-1 - 7)/ 2 = -8/2 = - 4
• y = (y1+y2)/2 = (2 - 4)/2 = -2/1 = - 1

Point coordinates:

• (-4, -1)
