The coordinates of the midpoint of the segment given its endpoints
P(-3,-7) and Q(3,5) is the midpoint of the given segment is (0,-6).
What is a midpoint ?
The midpoint of a line segment divides the line segment into two equal parts.
According to the given question
Co-ordinate of two endpoints are given and we have to find the co-ordinate of the midpoints.
Assuming co-ordinates of the midpoint is (x,y)
We know the midpoint formula is given by
x = (x₁ + x₂)/2 and y = (y₁ + y₂)/2
∴ x = (-3 + 3)/2
x = 0/2
x = 0.
And
y = (-7 -5)/2
y = -12/2
y = -6
So the midpoints of the co-ordinates are (0,-6).
