Worksheet on Finding Mid-Point
To get clear concept on how to find the mid-points between two given co-ordinate points student’s can practice the questions given in the worksheet on finding mid-point.
We know that the average distance between the two given points is known as the midpoint. Midpoint can be represented by any letter, for example M, N, O, P etc,.
Let us recall the formula for finding the midpoint between any two given points as follows;
Suppose, (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) be the co-ordinates of the points P and Q respectively and R, the mid-point of the line segment PQ. Then, the co-ordinates of R are ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2).
