Question

A line segment has the endpoints U(2, 3) and V(10, 3). Find the coordinates of its midpoint M.

Answer 1

M(6,3)

Explanation:

Find the average of your x1 and x2 and your y1 with your y2.

Don't change which ordered pair is 1 or 2.

so:

U(2,3)

V(10,3)

M(x,y)

x= (2+10)÷2=(12)÷2=6 X=6

y=(3+3)÷2=6÷2=3 Y=3
