Informal Geometry - Midpoint Formula Assignment

Front

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

Back

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

Front

Calculate the midpoint of the points (3, -1) and (7, -5).

Back

(5, -3)

Front

Find the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints (1, 1) and (9, 9).

Back

(5, 5)

Front

What is the definition of a midpoint in geometry?

Back

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

Front

If the endpoints of a line segment are (a, b) and (c, d), what is the formula to find the midpoint?

Back

Midpoint = ((a + c)/2, (b + d)/2)

Front

What is the midpoint between the points (2, 3) and (4, 7)?

Back

(3, 5)

Front

How do you find the midpoint of a horizontal line segment?

Back

Use the midpoint formula, focusing on the x-coordinates: Midpoint = ((x1 + x2)/2, y) where y is constant.

Front

How do you find the midpoint of a vertical line segment?

Back

Use the midpoint formula, focusing on the y-coordinates: Midpoint = (x, (y1 + y2)/2) where x is constant.

Front

What is the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints (0, 0) and (10, 10)?

Back

(5, 5)

Front

If the midpoint of a segment is (4, 5) and one endpoint is (2, 3), what is the other endpoint?

Back

(6, 7) - Use the midpoint formula to solve for the unknown endpoint.
