The other endpoint is (1, -17).
The midpoint formula is:
Using our midpoint and endpoint, we have:
For the first equation (to find the x-coordinate) we will multiply both sides by 2:
Subtract 11 from both sides:
12 - 11 = 11+x₂ - 11
1 = x₂
For the second equation (the y-coordinate) we multiply both sides by 2:
Add 5 to both sides:
-22+5 = -5+y₂ + 5
-17 = y₂
This means that (x₂, y₂) is at (1, -17).
