Finding Endpoints

Front

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

Back

Front

If one endpoint is (6, 2) and the midpoint is (-2, 5), how do you find the missing endpoint?

Back

Use the midpoint formula: Set M = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2) and solve for the missing endpoint.

Front

Given the midpoint (-2, 5) and one endpoint (6, 2), what is the missing endpoint?

Back

The missing endpoint is (-10, 8).

Front

What is the significance of the midpoint in geometry?

Back

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

Front

If Toni is at (-8, 10) and is halfway between the Pizzeria at (-2, 8) and the Taco Shop, how do you find the Taco Shop's location?

Back

Use the midpoint formula to find the Taco Shop's coordinates.

Front

What is the first step in finding a missing endpoint when given a midpoint?

Back

Identify the coordinates of the known endpoint and the midpoint.

Front

If the midpoint is (3, 8) and one endpoint is (11, 15), what is the missing endpoint?

Back

The missing endpoint is (-5, 1).

Front

How do you calculate the x-coordinate of a missing endpoint given the midpoint and one endpoint?

Back

Use the formula: x2 = 2 * Mx - x1, where Mx is the x-coordinate of the midpoint.

Front

What is the x-coordinate of the missing endpoint if the midpoint is (0, -3) and the known endpoint is (0, -2)?

Back

The missing endpoint is (0, -4).

Front

If the midpoint is (0, -3) and one endpoint is (3, 0), what is the missing endpoint?

Back

The missing endpoint is (-6, -6).
