Question

Find the coordinate of the midpoint of line 5,6 and 5,3

Answer 1

(5, 4.5)

Explanation:

You would want to use the midpoint formula to find the midpoint of line 5,6 and 5,3.

Midpoint formula =
`(x1 + x 2)/(2) , (y1 + y2)/(2)`

x1 = 5

x2 = 5

y1 = 6

y2 = 3

Plug those into the midpoint formula.

`(5+5)/(2) , (6+3)/(2)`

5+5=10/2 = 5

6+3=9/2=4.5

you answer will be (5,4.5)

hope this helps.
