Midpoint of a line segment

Answers and reasoning. Review before teaching.

  1. 1. Find the midpoint of the line segment joining (26, 26) and (42, 46).

    (34, 36)

    Midpoint = ((26 + 42) ÷ 2, (26 + 46) ÷ 2) = (34, 36).

  2. 2. Find the midpoint of the line segment joining (20, 26) and (32, 30).

    (26, 28)

    Midpoint = ((20 + 32) ÷ 2, (26 + 30) ÷ 2) = (26, 28).

  3. 3. Find the midpoint of the line segment joining (22, 30) and (34, 44).

    (28, 37)

    Midpoint = ((22 + 34) ÷ 2, (30 + 44) ÷ 2) = (28, 37).

  4. 4. Find the midpoint of the line segment joining (10, 14) and (22, 22).

    (16, 18)

    Midpoint = ((10 + 22) ÷ 2, (14 + 22) ÷ 2) = (16, 18).

  5. 5. Find the midpoint of the line segment joining (4, 4) and (6, 14).

    (5, 9)

    Midpoint = ((4 + 6) ÷ 2, (4 + 14) ÷ 2) = (5, 9).

  6. 6. Find the midpoint of the line segment joining (6, 24) and (12, 38).

    (9, 31)

    Midpoint = ((6 + 12) ÷ 2, (24 + 38) ÷ 2) = (9, 31).

  7. 7. Find the midpoint of the line segment joining (4, 6) and (12, 24).

    (8, 15)

    Midpoint = ((4 + 12) ÷ 2, (6 + 24) ÷ 2) = (8, 15).

  8. 8. Find the midpoint of the line segment joining (8, 30) and (24, 46).

    (16, 38)

    Midpoint = ((8 + 24) ÷ 2, (30 + 46) ÷ 2) = (16, 38).

  9. 9. Find the midpoint of the line segment joining (12, 28) and (26, 36).

    (19, 32)

    Midpoint = ((12 + 26) ÷ 2, (28 + 36) ÷ 2) = (19, 32).

  10. 10. Find the midpoint of the line segment joining (8, 8) and (16, 16).

    (12, 12)

    Midpoint = ((8 + 16) ÷ 2, (8 + 16) ÷ 2) = (12, 12).

  11. 11. Find the midpoint of the line segment joining (6, 8) and (14, 22).

    (10, 15)

    Midpoint = ((6 + 14) ÷ 2, (8 + 22) ÷ 2) = (10, 15).

  12. 12. Find the midpoint of the line segment joining (14, 22) and (28, 30).

    (21, 26)

    Midpoint = ((14 + 28) ÷ 2, (22 + 30) ÷ 2) = (21, 26).
