Question

Find the midpoint of the segment with the following endpoints.
(2,9) and (9,4)

Answer 1

(5.5, 6.5)

Explanation:

To solve for the midpoint of the segment with the given endpoints, we need to use the midpoint formula which is:

`((x1+x2)/(2) , (y1+y2)/(2) )`

Then, we simply just plug the 2 endpoints given into this equation

• x1 = 2
• x2 = 9
• y1 = 9
• y2 = 4

• (
  `(2+9)/(2) , (9+4)/(2)`)
• (
  `(11)/(2) , (13)/(2)`)
• (5.5, 6.5)

(5.5, 6.5) is the midpoint of the segment of the 2 endpoints

Answer 2

The midpoint is (11/2, 13/2)
