1 Midpoint and Distance Formulas

2 Midpoint The midpoint of a line segment is the point that lies exactly halfway between the two endpoints.

3 Find the Midpoint of the Line Segment
(7, 1) (-3, 1) ) (5, -2) (9, -8) 3) (-4, 4) (4, -4)

4 Distance Formula The distance formula can be used to find the distance between any 2 points in the coordinate plane

5 Find the Distance between 2 points
1) (2, 3) (-4, 6)

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?

7 Find a Missing Coordinate
Find the value of a if the distance between the points (7, 5) and (a, -3) is 10 units.
