Question

The mid point of the line segment joining the points (- 5, 7) and (- 1, 3) is
(a) (-3, 7) (b) (-3, 5) (c) (-1, 5)
(d) (5, -3)

Answer 1

using mid point formula ,

that is , coordinates of mid point of a line segment with end points (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are

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

therefore , using above formula ,

=> mid point of (-5,7) and (-1,3) is

=> x- coordinate = [-1+(-5)]/2 = = -6/2 = -3

and y coordinate = (7+3)/2 = 5

=> coordinates are (-3 , 5 )
