Find the coordinates of the midpoint of GH with endpoints G (-4, 3) and H (6, -2).
To find the coordinates of the midpoint of GH, we can use the midpoint formula.
The midpoint formula states that the coordinates of the midpoint (M) is the average of the coordinates of the endpoints (G and H).
The x-coordinate of the midpoint (Mx) is the average of the x-coordinates of G and H.
Mx = (x1 + x2) / 2 = (-4 + 6) / 2 = 2 / 2 = 1
The y-coordinate of the midpoint (My) is the average of the y-coordinates of G and H.
My = (y1 + y2) / 2 = (3 + (-2)) / 2 = 1 / 2 = -1/2 or -0.5
Therefore, the midpoint of GH is M(1, -1/2) or (1, -0.5).
