Find the coordinates of midpoint of segment joining (22, 20) and (0, 16)

बेरीज

उत्तर

Let A(x1, y1) = A(22, 20), B(x2, y2) = B(0, 16)

Let the co-ordinates of the midpoint be P(x, y).

∴ By midpoint formula,

x = `(x_1 + x_2)/2`

= `(22 + 0)/2`

= 11

y = `(y_1 + y_2)/2`

= `(20 + 16)/2`

= `36/2`

= 18

∴ The co-ordinates of the midpoint of the segment joining (22, 20) and (0, 16) are (11, 18).

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)`


From the figure given alongside, find the length of the median AD of triangle ABC. Complete the activity.


Solution:

Here A(–1, 1), B(5, – 3), C(3, 5) and suppose D(x, y) are coordinates of point D.

Using midpoint formula,

x = `(5 + 3)/2`

∴ x = `square`

y = `(-3 + 5)/2`

∴ y = `square`

Using distance formula,

∴ AD = `sqrt((4 - square)^2 + (1 - 1)^2`

∴ AD = `sqrt((square)^2 + (0)^2`

∴ AD = `sqrt(square)`

∴ The length of median AD = `square`

Find the coordinates of point P where P is the midpoint of a line segment AB with A(–4, 2) and B(6, 2).

Solution :

Suppose, (–4, 2) = (x1, y1) and (6, 2) = (x2, y2) and co-ordinates of P are (x, y).

∴ According to the midpoint theorem,

x = `(x_1 + x_2)/2 = (square + 6)/2 = square/2 = square`

y = `(y_1 + y_2)/2 = (2 + square)/2 = 4/2 = square`

∴  Co-ordinates of midpoint P are `square`.
