Geometry Concepts: Midpoint, Distance, and Undefined Sets

What is the formula used to find the midpoint of a line segment?

• Use the Pythagorean theorem

• Subtract one endpoint from the other and divide by two

• Multiply the x-coordinates and divide by two

• Average the x-coordinates and y-coordinates separately
