Example Question #1451 : Gre Quantitative Reasoning
There is a line defined by two end-points, and
. The midpoint between these two points is
. What is the value of the point
?
Recall that to find the midpoint of two points and
, you use the equation:
.
(It is just like finding the average of the two points, really.)
So, for our equation, we know the following:
You merely need to solve each coordinate for its respective value.
Then, for the y-coordinate:
Therefore, our other point is:

Example Question #1453 : Gre Quantitative Reasoning
What is the other endpoint of a line segment with one point that is and a midpoint of
?
Recall that the midpoint formula is like finding the average of the and
values for two points. For two points
and
, it is:
For our points, we are looking for . We know:
We can solve for each of these coordinates separately:
X-Coordinate
Y-Coordinate:
Therefore, our point is
Example Question #1 : Midpoint Formula
