Question

The midpoint of AB is M(-1,7). If the coordinates of A are (4,8), what are the coordinates of B?

Answer 1

Answer:

B (-6,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

For two points (a,b) and (c,d), the co-ordinate of the midpoint of the line joining the points is ((a+c)/2 , (b+d)/2)

Let, co-ordnate of B is (x,y)

So, (4+x)/2 = -1  ;         (8+y)/2 = 7

 => x = -6          ;     => y = 6
