Question

Given the points A and BThe coordinates of point A = ( 3 , 1 )The coordinates of point B = (-1 , -1)The midpoint of AB = ([?],[ ])The midpoint of ab?

Answer 1

Given the points A and B

The coordinates of point A = ( 3 , 1 )

The coordinates of point B = (-1 , -1)

The midpoint of AB, is the point C

C will be calculated as following :

$C=\frac{A+B}{2}=\frac{(3,1)+(-1,-1)}{2}=\frac{(3-1,1-1)}{2}=\frac{(2,0)}{2}=(1,0)$

so, the midpoint of AB = (1 , 0 )
