Question

Find the midpoint of each line segment with the given endpoints (√18, -4) and (√2, 4)

Expert Solution
Step 1

We have to find midpoint of line segment where end points are given as:

18, -4 and 2, 4.

We know the formula for midpoint when line segment has endpoints as x1, y1 and x2, y2,

sum of x-coordinate2, sum of y-coordinate2=x1+x22, y1+y22

According to question,

x1=18, y1=-4x2=2, y2=4
