Start at (-3,9).  The increase in x from this point to the midpoint (3,3) is 6.  Add 6 to the x-coordinate of (3,3), obtaining 9, which is the x-coordinate of the other endpoint of the line segment.

Next, notice that y decreases by 6 from 9 to 3 as we travel from (-3,9) to (3,3).   Decrease y again by 6:  3 less 6 is -3.  So the y-coordinate of the other endpoint is -3.  

Thus, the coordinates of the other endpoint are (9, -3).

Let's check whether this is correct or not.  According to the midpoint formula, e find the x-coordinate of the midpoint by summing up the endpoint x values and dividing this sum by 2:  (-3+9)/2 = 3.  This agrees with the given midpoint (3,3).

Please help with this math problem! The intersection of GK and HL is point P. Which triangle must be an isosceles triangle? *loo
Whitepunk [10]

None of the triangles listed has two equal base angles or two equal side lengths, therefore: D. No triangle is isosceles.

<h3>Properties of an Isosceles Triangle</h3>
  • An isosceles triangle has two base angles having equal angle measure.
  • The side lengths that are opposite each of the equal base angles are also congruent to each other.

Thus, none of the triangles listed has two equal base angles or two equal side lengths, therefore: D. No triangle is isosceles.
