Question

® 10. Coordinates of the point bisecting the line
segment joining the points (1, -2) and (-3, 4) is
(-2, 2).​

Answer 1

Answer:-

• Here w ehave to verify that

(-2,2) is the midpoint

Given Co-ordinates

• (1,-2)
• (-3,4)

We know

$\boxed{\sf (x,y)=\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)}$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto (-2,2)=\left(\dfrac{1-3}{2},\dfrac{-2+4}{2}\right)$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto (-2,2)=\left(\dfrac{-2}{2},{\dfrac{2}{2}}\right)$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto (-2,2)\neq(-1,1)$

Hence (-2,2) is not the midpoint.
