Question

Find the midpoint of the line segment joining the points $(3,0)$ and $(-1,4)$.

Answer 1

Midpoint $M(x,y)$ of the line segment joining the points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_1,y_1)$ us
$M(x,y)=M(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$
$\therefore$ Midpoint of the line segment joining the points $(3,0)$ and $(-1,4)$ is
$M(x,y)=(\frac{3-1}{2},\frac{0+4}{2})=M(1,2)$
