Question

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of a segment with the endpoints
(16,5) & (28, -13)

Answer 1

To determine the coordinates of the midpoints of a line segment, get the average of the both the abscissas and ordinates. In this example, the average of the abscissas is 22 and that of the ordinates is -4. Thus, the midpoint is (22, -4).
