\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points }\\\\ \begin{array}{ccccccccc} &&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\ % (a,b) &&(~ 6 &,& -8~) % (c,d) &&(~ -2 &,& 4~) \end{array}\qquad % coordinates of midpoint \left(\cfrac{ x_2 + x_1}{2}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{ y_2 + y_1}{2} \right) \\\\\\ \left( \cfrac{-2+6}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{4-8}{2} \right)\implies \left(\cfrac{4}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{-4}{2} \right)\implies (2~,-2)
