Answer to this question?

Answer 1

The midpoint of segment ST is (1,1).
The length of segment ST is 8 units.

Answer 2

A midsegment is given by the formula:

`(x1+x2)/(2) , (y1+y2)/(2)`

Where x1, x2, y1, and y2 correspond to their respective coordinates. We can do the equation:


`(-3+5)/(2) , (-1+3)/(2)`
This gets us a midpoint coordinate of (1,1)

As for distance, it will be found by doing:

`√((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)`
We can do the following:


`√((5-(-3))^2+(3-(-1))^2)`

`√((8)^2+(4)^2)`

`√(64+16)`
This simplifies to
`4 √(5)`
