Find the coordinates of the missing endpoint Q if P (5, 2) is the midpoint of segment NQ and N (2, 0) You can use the Midpoint formula directly to solve for the missing endpoint with the data given
Math Geometry Melissa M. asked • 08/22/19 Find the missing endpoint Find the missing endpoint if the midpoint is at (2,-5) and one endpoint is at (12, -5).
x= (x1+x2)/2 y= (y1+y2)/2 using these two equations and substituting the values of midpoint and the given endpoint (x1,y1), you can find the other endpoint . Remember when you solve the equations algebraically you have to first multiply both sides by 2, and then subtract x1 to get x2, and likewise for y2. hope this helps!
Hi Madison C. M (13, -6) Since K is the midpoint of LM you can use the Midpoint formula to solve for the coordinates of the endpoint M. You are given one endpoint L and the midpoint of LM, K, where L (-9, 4) and K (2, -1) Let the coordinates of L = (x 1, y 1) Let the coordinates of M = (x 2, y 2) The Midpoint Formula is (x 1 + x 2)/2 = x coordinate of the Midpoint (y 1 + y 2)/2 = y coordidnate ...
Find the coordinates of the other endpoint of the segment, given its midpoint and one endpoint. (Hint: Let (x,y) be the unknown endpoint. Apply the midpoint formula, and solve the two equations for x and y.) Midpoint (0,-1) end point (1,-4)
If you have specific coordinates of the midpoint and one endpoint, you can substitute these into midpoint formula and solve for the coordinate of the missing endpoint (one formula for x coordinates, a similar formula for y coordinates).
Compute slope of each pair using formula: slope = (y2- y1)/ (x2 - x1), where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are coordinates of two points. For example for :B (5,2) C (7,-5), slope would be (-5-2)/ (7-5) = -7/2 = -3.5 A line parallel to a line passing through these points would need to have the same slope of -3.5. When equation of the line are in the form y=mx+b, m is the slope, so the equation with m ...
