Question

What is the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints (5, -2) and (1, -6)?
(2, -2)
(3, -4)
(3, -6)
(4, -3)

Answer 1

The co-ordinates of midpoint(x,y) on the line segment with end-points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is just the average of co-ordinates, given by :
\(\large x=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}\)
\(\large y=\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}\)
now,just put the values and find the co-ordinates of midpoint (x,y).
