Question

What is the midpoint of the segment shown below?

Answer 1

`Mid\ points = ((5)/(2) , (7)/(2))`.

Explanation:

Given : End points of line are (3, 5) and ( 2 , 2) .

To find : What is the midpoint of the line .

Solution : We have given

End points(3, 5) and ( 2 , 2) .

`Mid\ points = ((x_(1)+x_(2))/(2) , (y_(1)+y_(2))/(2))` .

Here ,

`x_(1) = 3.\\x_(2) = 2.\\y_(1) = 5.\\y_(2) = 2`.

The plug the values in given formula.

`Mid\ points = ((3+ 2)/(2) , ( 5+2)/(2))`

`Mid\ points = ((5)/(2) , (7)/(2))`.

Therefore, D).
`Mid\ points = ((5)/(2) , (7)/(2))`.
