Question

Find endpoint with given endpoint and midpoint

Answer 1

(21, 17 )

Explanation:

Using the midpoint formula and equating to the coordinates of the midpoint.

Let endpoint 2 have coordinates (x, y ), then

0.5(x - 3) = 9 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

x - 3 = 18 ( add 3 to both sides )

x = 21

and

0.5(y - 5) = 6 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

y - 5 = 12 ( add 5 to both sides )

y = 17

endpoint 2 = (21, 17 )
