Given the points A(3,2)and B(7,-6) what is the point halfway between A and the midpoint of AB?

Sagot :

Given:

[tex]A(x_1,y_1)=(3,2),B(x_2,y_2)=(7,-6)[/tex][tex]\text{Mid point of AB=(}\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex][tex]\text{Mid point of AB=(}\frac{3+7}{2},\frac{2-6}{2})[/tex][tex]\text{Mid point of AB=(}\frac{10}{2},-\frac{4}{2})[/tex][tex]\text{Midpoint of AB=(5,-2)}[/tex]

Halfway between the A and the midpoint of AB

[tex](\frac{3+5}{2},\frac{2-2}{2})[/tex][tex](\frac{8}{2},\frac{0}{2})[/tex][tex](4,0)[/tex]

Halfway between the A and the midpoint of AB is (4,0)
