There are formulas that you will be provided with to calculate various pieces of information about pairs of points. Each formula refers to a set of two points: (x 1, y 1 ) and (x 2, y 2 )
25
Distance – the length of the line segment that connects two given points in the coordinate plane. Distance Formula:
26
Ex#1: (2, 2) and (5, -2) Distance: ________
27
The midpoint is the point equidistant between two points in the coordinate plane. Midpoint Formula: NOTICE: the answer to a midpoint formula problem will be in the form (1, 2) – meaning your answer is another point!
28
Ex# 1: (2, 2) and (5, -2) Midpoint: _______
