Question

the mid point of the line segment joining the point P(-2,1) and Q(1,0) find the coordinates of Q​

Answer 1

Answer:

-1/2 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2+1/2 1+0/2

-1/2 1/2

Answer 2

The coordinates of Q​ would be (4,-1)

It is given that the coordinates of the point P is (-2,1).

Also, the coordinates of the mid point is (1,0).

Let us assume the coordinates of the point Q to be (x,y)

As the mid point of the point lies mid-way between P and Q, so the x-coordinate of the mid point would be equal to the summation of the x-coordinates of the two points, divided by 2 and same for the y-coordinate.

So,

(x-2)/2 = 1

⇒ (x-2) = 2

⇒ x = 4

And,

(y+1)/2 = 0

⇒ y+1 = 0

⇒ y = -1

So, the coordinates of Q is (4,-1)
