Given parameters:
Coordinates of the points = (3,4) and (19, 16)
Unknown:
The distance between the points = ?
The midpoint = ?
Solution:
The distance between two points can be mathematically solved using;
D =
where x₁ = 3, x₂ = 19 and y₁ = 4, y₂ = 16
Input the parameters and solve;
D = = 20
Midpoint;
The expression is given as;
x , y
=
,
input the parameters and solve;
= ,
= 11 , 10
The midpoint is (11, 10)
