FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you find the midpoint of a line segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

The midpoint M is calculated using the formula M = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2).

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Given the midpoint (3, 4) and one endpoint (-1, 6), how do you find the other endpoint?

Back

Use the formula: Other endpoint = (2 * midpoint - given endpoint). For this case, it is (2*3 - (-1), 2*4 - 6) = (7, 2).

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

If the endpoints of a segment are (4, 12) and (-6, 14), what is the midpoint?

Back

The midpoint is calculated as M = ((4 + (-6))/2, (12 + 14)/2) = (-1, 13).

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you find the missing endpoint if one endpoint is at (-9, -1) and the midpoint is (-2, -6)?

Back

Use the formula: Missing endpoint = (2 * midpoint - known endpoint). Here, it is (2 * (-2) - (-9), 2 * (-6) - (-1)) = (5, -11).
