Question

Find the coordinates of the other endpoint if the midpoint is M(8, 2) and the other endpoint is P(5, 6). O (6.5, 4) (21, 10) O (11, -2)​

Answer 1

(11,-2)

Explanation:

11+5 /2= 8

6+-2= -4/2=-2

Answer 2

(11,-2)

Explanation:

The one point you have is P(5,6)

The midpoint is (8,2)

The other point is (x,y)

(x + 5) /2 = 8

(x + 5) = 8*2

x + 5 = 16

x = 16-5

x = 11

===========

(y + 6)/2 = 2

y + 6 = 2*2

y + 6 = 4

y = 4 - 6

y = - 2
