Formula: Midpoint = ((x₁+x₂)/2, (y₁+y₂)/2)
Midpoint = ((x₁+x₂)/2, (y₁+y₂)/2)
Step-by-Step Examples
(2,3) and (8,7) = (5, 5)
x: (2+8)/2=5, y: (3+7)/2=5.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find the midpoint between two points?
Average the x-coordinates and average the y-coordinates separately: ((x₁+x₂)/2, (y₁+y₂)/2).
What is the midpoint used for?
Midpoints are used to find the center of line segments, bisect lines, and locate center points in geometry and design.
Can midpoint coordinates be decimals?
Yes. If the sum of coordinates is odd, the midpoint will have a 0.5 component.
