Question

Find the midpoint of each (1,2 and(3,4)

Answer 1

The midpoints are ( 2, 3).

Explanation:

Given that the endpoints are A( 1, 2) and B (3, 4)-

As we know that-

If a line segment AB is with endpoints (
`x_(1), y_(1)` ) and (
`x_(2), y_(2)` ) then the mid points C are-

C = (
`( x_(1) + x_(2)  )/(2)` ,
`( y_(1) + y_(2) )/(2)` )

Here,

A ( 1, 2 ) and B ( 3, 4 )

then the midpoints C are-

C = (
`(1 + 3 )/(2)` ,
`(2 + 4)/(2)`

C= ( 4/2 , 6/2 )

C = ( 2, 3 )

Hence the required midpoints are (2, 3).
