Question

Find the mid point's of the line segment joining the points ( 2,7) and ( 12,-7)​

Answer 1

Answer:

(2,7) (12,-7)

x1y¹ x2. y2

x1+x2/2. y1+y2/2

2+12/2. 7-7/2

14/2. 0/2

7. 0

(7,0)ANS

Answer 2

Let the points be

• A (2, 7)
• B (12, -7)

Given:

• x₁ = 2
• y₁ = 7
• x₂ = 12
• y₂ = -7

To find:

Midpoint of the 2 points = ?

Solution:

For finding the midpoint of any 2 given points, midpoint formula is to be applied.

Midpoint of X axis:

Midpoint = (x₁ + x₂) ÷ 2

⇒ Midpoint = (2 + 12) ÷ 2

⇒ Midpoint = 14 ÷ 2

⇒ Midpoint = 7

Midpoint of Y axis:

Midpoint = (y₁ + y₂) ÷ 2

⇒ Midpoint = (7 - 7) ÷ 2

⇒ Midpoint = 0 ÷ 2

⇒ Midpoint = 0

∴ The mid-point of the given line segment = (7, 0)
