Answer:
- a) AB = 10 units
- b) Midpoint is (2, 6)
===================
<h3 /><h3>Given</h3>- Points A( - 1, 10) and B(5, 2)
- a) The length of AB
- b) The midpoint of AB
a) Use the distance formula:
Substitute the coordinates and calculate:
The distance is AB = 10 units
b) Use midpoint formula and find x and y- coordinates of this point:
and
Substitute coordinates and find the midpoint:
and
The midpoint is (2, 6)
