Question

Find the midpoint M of the line segment joining the points A = (7, - 8) and B = (- 3, - 4)

Answer 1

Explanation:

• (7+(-3))/2 , (-8+(-4))/2
• (7-3)/2 , (-8-4)/2
• 4/2 , -12/2
• midpoint = (2,-6)

Answer 2

The midpoint of a line segment is a point that lies halfway between 2 points. The midpoint is the same distance from each endpoint.

Use this calculator to calculate the midpoint, the distance between 2 points, or find an endpoint given the midpoint and the other endpoint.
