How Do We Calculate the Midpoint of Segment?
The midpoint of a line segment is the halfway point between two locations. To calculate the midpoint, you have to take the mean of x and y seperately. The formula to fine the mipoint is:
- (x1,y1), (x2,y2) } ( x1+x2/2, y1+y2/2)
It'a the average of x and y.
Examples:
If you're given a line segment with point a and b, you average the x coordinates and the y coordinates to re-create a new coordinate to represent point m for the midpoint.
