GRE 504: Find the midpoint of a line segment* GRE 603: Use the distance formula
The midpoint is the middle of two points on a coordinate plane. To find the midpoint, you would find the average of the x and y coordinates, or… x 1 + x 2 2 y 1 + y 2 2 (, )
Find the midpoint of the coordinates: (2, 4) & (6, 12) (x 1, y 1 ) (x 2, y 2 ) (), () , (4, 8) This is the midpoint! I remember this!
