Midpoint and Distance Formulas

Front

What is the midpoint formula for two endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Midpoint = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2)

Front

What is the distance formula between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Distance = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²)

Front

What is the definition of a midpoint?

Back

The midpoint is the point that divides a line segment into two equal parts.

Front

Calculate the distance between the points (3, 4) and (7, 1).

Back

Distance = √((7 - 3)² + (1 - 4)²) = √(16 + 9) = √25 = 5.

Front

Find the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints (2, 3) and (4, 7).

Back

Midpoint = ((2 + 4)/2, (3 + 7)/2) = (3, 5)
