Question

The midpoint of the line segment joining the points A(-2,8) andB(-6,-4) is

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:Points A(-2,8) and B(-6,-4).

To find: The midpoint of the line segment joining the points A(-2,8) and B(-6,-4).

Solution:

Mid point formula:

If $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ are the two points,then midpoint is given by

$\left(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)$

Here

A(-2,8) and B(-6,-4)

put the values in the formula

$\left(\frac{-2-6}{2},\frac{8-4}{2}\right)$

$\left(\frac{-8}{2},\frac{4}{2}\right)$

$(-4,2)$

are the coordinates of mid-point of line segment joining the points A(-2,8) and B(-6,-4).

Final answer:

Mid point is (-4,2)
