Midpoint & Distance Practice

Front

What is the distance formula?

Back

The distance formula is used to find the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) in a coordinate plane: \(d = \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2}\).

Front

Find the distance between (12, -5) and (2, -5).

Front

What is the midpoint formula?

Back

The midpoint formula is used to find the midpoint M between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2): \(M = \left(\frac{x1 + x2}{2}, \frac{y1 + y2}{2}\right)\).

Front

Find the midpoint of the points (2, 4) and (6, 8).
