The midpoint of CD is M=(1, 2). One endpoint is C = (6, -2).
Find the coordinates of the other endpoint, D.

The Midpoint Of CD Is M1 2 One Endpoint Is C 6 2 Find The Coordinates Of The Other Endpoint D class=

Sagot :

Answer: Endpoint = (-4,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find any endpoint use the formula [tex]\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} = Xmp[/tex]    [tex]\frac{y_1+y_2}{2} =Ymp[/tex]

[tex]\frac{6+x_2}{2} = 1[/tex]          [tex]\frac{-2+y_2}{2} =2[/tex]    

multiply each by 2  to simplify

[tex]\frac{6+x_2}{2*2} = 1*2 = {6+x_2}= 2[/tex]    [tex]\frac{-2+y_2}{2*2} =2*2 = -2+y_2=4[/tex] take the equations and simplify

6+[tex]x_{2}[/tex] = 2                          -2+[tex]y_{2}[/tex] = 4  =  

-6       -6                          +2       +2

   [tex]x_{2}[/tex] = -4                               [tex]y_{2}[/tex] =  6

To check use the Midpoint formula

[tex]\frac{-4+6}{2} , \frac{6-2}{2} = \frac{2}{2} , \frac{4}{2} = (1,2)[/tex]
