When showing your work (type/write the equation or explain the steps). The more steps you show the more partial credit that can be earned even if answer is calculated incorrectly.

Given: The points A(-3, 8), B(-5,0) and C( 3,4) form Triangle ABC.
Answer the following questions.
It may help you to sketch the triangle on paper (However, you do not need to turn the diagram in with the assignment but you certainly can).

1. The midpoint of side AB lies at point D. What are the coordinates of point D? (1 pt)

$$\left( x_D,y_D \right) = \left( \frac{ x_A+x_B }{ 2 },\frac{ y_A+y_B }{ 2 } \right)$$
