Applying the midpoint formula to find the midpoint between two points

The video tutorial reviews the distance formula and introduces the concept of the midpoint. It explains the difference between distance as a length and midpoint as a coordinate point. The midpoint formula is presented as the average of the x and y coordinates of two points. The tutorial provides a detailed example of applying the midpoint formula, emphasizing the importance of leaving results as fractions. The session concludes with a recap and reference to previous notes on absolute value.
