Question

For X(0,0) and Y(4,8), P is the midpoint of XY and Q is the midpoint

of PY, then the coordinates of Q are _______​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

P is the mid point of XY

Mid point of points X(0,0) and Y (4,8) = ( x1+x2/2 , y1+y2/2)

= (0+4/2 , 0+8/2 )

= ( 4/2 , 8/2)

= (2,4)

We got the coordinates of P i.e 2,4

Q is the mid point of PY

Now mid point of points P(2,4) and Y(4,8)

= ( x1+x2/2 , y1+y2/2)

= (2+4/2 , 4+8/2 )

= (6/2 , 12/2)

= (3,6)

So coordinates of Q are (3,6)
