Question

What is the midpoint of the longest side of the triangle with vertices (1,4),(3, 4), and (3, 6)?

A, (1, 1)
B, (2, 4)
С, (2,5)
D,(3,5) ​

Answer 1

(2, 5)

Explanation:

The longest side of the triangle will be the side with the coordinate (1,4) and (3,6) due the value of the distance between them;

Midpoint = (x1+x2/2, y1+y2/2)

X = 1+3/2

X = 4/2

X = 2

Y = 4+6/2

Y = 10/2

Y = 5

Hence the required midpoint (X, Y) will be at (2, 5)
