1. Divergent
The plates that move apart are called diverging plates. As the diverging plates move apart, a crack is created that causes magma to rush up and form a new bedrock. Most are found on the seabed.

2. Convergent
The plates that move towards each other, ie the plates that eventually collide

3. Subduction zone
It is a boundary area in the lithosphere. Two plates in the lithosphere collide with each other, as one plate is pressed down under the other and sinks into the mantle.

4. Spreading zone
Is a plate tectonic boundary where two tectonic plates move apart. The material contained in the mantle rises towards the lithosphere and this occurs at the same time as the crust cracks. When the crust cracks, magmatic mantle material rushes out between the plates.

All of this is from my own personal documents so be free to use it and dont think about plagiarism:)

How can you find the midpoint and length of a line segment in a coordinate plain
schepotkina [342]

The coordinates of these endpoints can help us find the length and the midpoint, or the point that is halfway between the two endpoints, of the line segment. We can calculate the length of a line segment by using the Distance Formula, and we can calculate the midpoint of a line segment by using the Midpoint Formula.
