QR has endpoints at Q(20, 19) and R(19, 6). Find the midpoint M of QR.
Write the coordinates as decimals or integers.
To find the midpoint M, we can use the midpoint formula which states that the coordinates of the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are given by the coordinates:
M = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2)
In this case, the coordinates of Q are (20, 19) and the coordinates of R are (19, 6).
Using the midpoint formula, we can find the coordinates of M as:
M = ((20 + 19)/2, (19 + 6)/2)
M = (39/2, 25/2)
Therefore, the midpoint M of QR is (19.5, 12.5)
