Question

Select the correct answer.
The endpoints of GH are G(10,1) and H(3,5). What is the midpoint of GH?

A. (-4,9)
B. (7/2,2)
C. (13/2, 3)
D. (13,6)

Answer 1

Midpoint formula, given endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2):

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

To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, add the two x coordinates of the endpoint and divide by 2. Repeat this logic with the y coordinates to get the y coordinate.
