Question

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the line segment ab,where a and b have coordinates a(8.0),b(4.6)

Answer 1

$\bf \textit{middle point of 2 points }\\ \quad \\ \begin{array}{lllll} &x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\ % (a,b) &({{ 8}}\quad ,&{{ 0}})\quad % (c,d) &({{ 4}}\quad ,&{{ 6}}) \end{array}\qquad % coordinates of midpoint \left(\cfrac{{{ x_2}} + {{ x_1}}}{2}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{{{ y_2}} + {{ y_1}}}{2} \right) \\\\\\ \left( \cfrac{4+8}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{6+0}{2} \right)\implies (6~~,~~3)$
