Question

Find the coordinates of the other endpoint of the​ segment, given its midpoint and one endpoint.​ Midpoint (15, -8), endpoint (16, -3). What is the other endpoint?​

Answer 1

Answer:

the other endpoint is $(14,-13)$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the midpoint between two points is equal to

$M(\frac{x1+x2}{2},\frac{y1+y2}{2})$

Let

$(x1,y1)=(16,-3)$

so

$(16+x2)/2=15$ -----> $x2=30-16=14$

$(-3+y2)/2=-8$ -----> $y2=-16+3=-13$

therefore

the other endpoint is $(x2,y2)=(14,-13)$
