Question

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are H(6, 4) and K(2, 8) A. (4, 4) B. (2, 2) C. (8, 12) D. (4, 6)

Answer 1

Endpoints of the segment line:
H ( 6, 4 ) and K ( 2, 8 ):
x 1 = 6, x 2 = 2;
y 1 = 4, y 2 = 8:
x m = ( 6 + 2 ) / 2 = 8 / 2 = 4
y m = ( 4 + 8 ) / 2 = 12 / 2 = 6
Answer: D ) ( 4, 6 )
