Question

The endpoints of EFare E(xE , yE) and F(xF , yF). What are the coordinates of the midpoint of EF?

Answer 1

(C)

Explanation:

It is given that the end points of EF are
`E(x_(E),y_(E))` and
`F(x_(F),y_(F))`.

Let the mid point of EF be M, then the coordinates of M can be found by using the mid point formula,

M=
`((x_(1)+x_(2))/(2),(y_(1)+y_(2))/(2))`

M=
`((x_(E)+x_(F))/(2),(y_(E)+y_(F))/(2))`

Thus, option C is correct.

Answer 2

The coordinates of the midpoint of EF is ((xE + xF)/2, (yE + yF)/2)
The third option is the correct answer.
