Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint is the middle point of the line segment that divides it into two equal parts. Thus, it can be said midpoint is half of the sum of initial and final points of line segment.In the following figure, PQ is a line segment in XY plane ( as the mentioned coordinates lie on the x and y axis) and M is its middle point.

Complete step-by-step answer:

In geometry, the midpoint is the middle point of a line segment. It is equidistant from both endpoints, and it is the centroid both of the segment and of the endpoints. It bisects the segment.

Just as finding the midpoint is often required in geometry, so is finding the distance between two points. The distance between two points on a horizontal or vertical line is easy to calculate, but the process becomes more difficult if the points are not aligned as such. This is often the case when dealing with sides of a triangle. In some geometrical cases, we wish to inscribe a triangle inside another triangle, where the vertices of the inscribed triangle lie on the midpoint of the original triangle. The midpoint calculator is extremely useful in such cases.

Let coordinates of P be (x1,y1) , Q be (x2,y2) and midpoint M be (x, y). Therefore,

x1 = 3 x2= 5

y1= 4 y2= -2

As middle point is half the sum of initial and final points of the line segment, for respective axis it can be written as:

x=x1+x22;y=y1+y22

Substituting the values, we get:

x=3+52 y=4+(−2)2

x=82 y=22

x=4 y=1

M=(x,y)=(4,1)

Therefore coordinates of the midpoint of the line segment joining P(3,4) and Q(5,-2) are (4,1).

Note: When the coordinates of points in the XY plane are mentioned, the point on the x-axis is always written before Y.

Eg: P (3, 4) → 3 is x coordinate and 4 is y coordinate.

x - axis and y-axis can be called abscissa and ordinate as well.

Enclose negative terms in brackets to avoid calculation mistakes.
