Question

Find the midpoint of a line connecting the given pair points (8,4) and (2,1)

Answer 1

Given two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the midpoint is located at:

`((x_1+x_2)/(2),(y_1+y_2)/(2))`

Replacing with points (8,4) and (2,1) ​

`\begin{gathered} ((8+2)/(2),(4+1)/(2)) \\ (5,(5)/(2)) \end{gathered}`
