Question

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are H(2,1) and K(10,7)

Answer 1

`\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points } \\\\ H(\stackrel{x_1}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\qquad K(\stackrel{x_2}{10}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{7}) \qquad \left(\cfrac{ x_2 + x_1}{2}~~~ ,~~~ \cfrac{ y_2 + y_1}{2} \right) \\\\\\ \left(\cfrac{10+2}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{7+1}{2} \right)\implies \left( \cfrac{12}{2}~,~\cfrac{8}{2} \right)\implies (6,4)`
