Question

The endpoints of a line segments are at the coordinates (-6,3,4) and (4,-1,2) what is the midpoint of the segment

Answer 1

Answer:(-1,1,3)

Explanation:

The coordinates of the mid point are calculated by dividing the sum of each pair of corresponding coordinates by 2.

This is how you calculate the mid of each coordinate separately:

1) x-coordinate:

mid x-coordinate = (- 6 + 4) / 2 = -2 / 2 = - 1

2) y-coordinate

mid y-coordinate = (3 - 1) / 2 = 2 / 2 = 1

3) z-coordinate

mid z-coordinate = (4 + 2) / 2 = 6 / 2 = 3

So, the midpoint is (-1, 1 , 3)
