Midpoint and Distance Formulas
Midpoint The midpoint of a line segment is the point that lies exactly halfway between the two endpoints.
Find the Midpoint of the Line Segment (7, 1) (-3, 1) 2) (5, -2) (9, -8) 3) (-4, 4) (4, -4)
Distance Formula The distance formula can be used to find the distance between any 2 points in the coordinate plane
Find the Distance between 2 points 1) (2, 3) (-4, 6)
Tracy hits a golf ball that lands 20 feet short and 8 feet to the right of the cup. On her first putt, the ball lands 2 feet to the left and 3 feet beyond the cup. Assuming that the ball traveled in a straight line, how far did the ball travel on her first putt?
Find a Missing Coordinate Find the value of a if the distance between the points (7, 5) and (a, -3) is 10 units.
