Answer 1

@helpme1.2

Answer 2

help would really be appreciated I've been stuck on this for hours

Answer 3

Oh, wait that's the length.

Answer 4

I can do the midpoint, but what are the letters in the coordinates

Answer 5

Those are just variables there to represent numbers.

Answer 6

so how can i find the xy?

Answer 7

the variables in this are d e f g.

Answer 8

The midsegment below can be found by calculating the lengths of the bases.
calculating the sum of the bases .
and Dividing the sum by 2

Answer 9

4e+4g divided by two is the answer? im confused on what to do

Answer 10

I can give a metal to whoever can help me @shamil98

Answer 11

First step is find the midpoint between (0,0) and pt A
to do that find the average of the x values (first "number") and the average of the y values.
in other words, the mid pt between 0,0 and (4d,4e)
has x value of (0+4d)/2 (to find the average of 2 numbers, add together and divide by 2)
that simplifies to 4d/2, and even more to 2d (divide 4 by 2 to get 2)

now find the y value of the mid pt between 0,0 and (4d,4e)
can you do that ?

Answer 12

you should get the mid pt between (0,0) and pt A to be
(2d,2e)

now find the mid pt between pts B and C
find the average of their x values: (4f+4g)/2 = 2f+2g
and their y values: (4e+0)/2 = 2e
(2f+2g, 2e)

to find the mid pt between
(2d,2e) and (2f+2g, 2e)

I'll do the average of the y values: (2e+2e)/2 = e+e = 2e

you can do the average of the x-values, right ?
