Question

How do you find the midpoint of P = (5, 6) and M = (8, 2)?

Answer 1

Midpoint is `(6(1)/2, 4)`

Explanation:

Midpoint of two points `(x_1,y_1)` and `(x_2,y_2)` is given by `((x_1+x_2)/2,(y_1+y_2)/2)`

Hence midpoint of P = `(5, 6)` and M = `(8, 2)` is `((5+8)/2, (6+2)/2)` or

`(6(1)/2, 4)`
