Question

Find the midpoint of the segment that joins them.
(2,3), (5,2).

Answer 1

The points are (2, 3) and (5, 2).

Mid point = [(x₁+x₂)/2, (y₁+y₂)/2]

Substitute the values of (x₁, y₁) = (2, 3) and (x₂, y₂) = (5, 2) in [(x₁+x₂)/2, (y₁+y₂)/2]

Mid point = [(2 + 5)/2, (3 + 2)/2]

= [7/2, 5/2].

The mid point of the segment is (7/2, 5/2).
