Question

Given A(6, -17), B(-6, 17), C(4, 9), and D(-4, 4), the midpoint of which segment is at the origin?ABBCCDAD

Answer 1

Notice that if we calculate the midpoint between A and B, we get:

`M_(AB)=((-6+6)/(2),(17+(-17))/(2))=(0,0)`

therefore, the midpoint of segment AB is at the origin (0,0)
