Find coordinates of the midpoint of a segment joining point A(–1, 1) and point B(5, –7)

Solution: Suppose A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2)

x1 = –1, y1 = 1 and x2 = 5, y2 = –7

Using midpoint formula,

∴ Coordinates of midpoint of segment AB 

= `((x_1 + x_2)/2, (y_1+ y_2)/2)`

= `(square/2, square/2)`

∴ Coordinates of the midpoint = `(4/2, square/2)`

∴ Coordinates of the midpoint = `(2, square)`

उत्तर

Suppose A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2)

x1 = –1, y1 = 1 and x2 = 5, y2 = –7

Using midpoint formula,

∴ Coordinates of midpoint of segment AB 

= `((x_1 + x_2)/2, (y_1+ y_2)/2)`

= `((-1 + 5)/2, (1 - 7)/2)`

∴ Coordinates of the midpoint = `(4/2, (-6)/2)`

∴ Coordinates of the midpoint = (2, – 3)
