Question

M is the midpoint of JK. Find the coordinates of K. J(0, 11), M(-3,2)

Answer 1

Let's assume

point K as (x,y)

M is the midpoint of JK

so, other point as J(0, 11)

M(-3,2)

$(-3,2)=(\frac{0+x}{2},\frac{11+y}{2})$

now, we can compare both sides

Calculation of x-coordinate:

we get

$-3=\frac{0+x}{2}$

$x=-6$

Calculation of y-coordinate:

we get

$2=\frac{11+y}{2}$

$11+y=4$

$y=-7$

so, we will get point K

K=(-6,-7)............Answer
