Question

Find the midpoint of diagonal WY.. . Figure WXYZ is shown. W is at 0, 2. X is at 0, 6. Y is at 6, 6. Z is at 6, 2.. . (2, 4). . (2.5, 3.5). . (3, 3.5). . (3, 4)

Answer 1

The diagonal WY is formed by connecting W and Y. The coordinates of its midpoint are the average of coordinates of the endpoints. Below are the calculations.
abscissa : (0 + 6) / 2 = 3
ordinate: (2 + 6) / 2 = 4
Thus, the midpoint is ate (3, 4).

Answer 2

`(3,4)`

Explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the coordinates of the midpoint between two points is equal to

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

we have that

The coordinates of diagonal WY are

`W(0,2), Y(6,6)`

substitute in the formula to calculate the midpoint

`M((0+6)/(2),(2+6)/(2))`

`M((6)/(2),(8)/(2))`

`M(3,4)`
