Find the mid point between 2 points

Topic :- Midpoint of 2 points

The midpoint between two points whose coordinates are known will be found. We will also develop a general formula for determining the coordinates of the midpoint and go through an example.
This math help explains ,how to find the midpoint.

Question:

Find the mid-point between

(2,2)and (6,4)

Answer:-

midpoint formula
to points is

  x1+x2          y1+y2
x= -------- , y = -------
    2              2

So ,Let's say.

 ( 2 , 2)   ( 6 , 4 )
   x1  y1     x2  y2


Then the mid point is

       2+6        2+4
   x= ----- , y= ------
        2          2

        8      6
     = ---  , ----
        2       2

     =  4 , 3

So the mid point is (4,3)
