Here, given the one of the endpoint of the segment and the midpoint of the segment, we are to find the coordinates of the other endpoint

Mathematically, the equation to find the mid point given the end point of the segment is given as follows;


(x,y)=\frac{(x_{1\text{ }}+x_2)}{2},\frac{(y_{2\text{ }}+y_{1_{}})}{2}_{}_{}

From the question, we can say;

(x,)
