When given the end points of a line segment, you can find out its midpoint by using the midpoint formula. As the name might have already suggested, midpoint is basically the halfway between two end points. All you need to do is dividing the sum of x-values and the sum of y-values by 2.

The midpoint of a line segment is simply the average of the coordinates.

If you have endpoints (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) the midpoint is:

mp=((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2)
