(−6, −2), (9, 6) Find the midpoint of the line segment having the given endpoints.
midpoint formula is :
Xm = X1+X2 / 2
Ym =Y1+Y2 / 2
Xm = 9-6 / 2 =>3/2
Ym= 6-2 / 2 =>2
(3/2,2) is the midpoint.
Average of the x-coordinates = (-6 + 9)/2 = 3/2
Average of the y-coordinates = (-2 + 6)/2 = 2
Midpoint of the segment = (3/2, 2)
solution:
abscissa of mid point = (−6+9)/2 = 3/2 = 1.5
ordinate of midpoint = (−2+ 6)/2 = 2
so midpoint is (1.5, 2) i.e. (3/2, 2)
hope it would be helpful
