MIDPOINT FORMULA · WORKED EXAMPLE
Midpoint with Positive Coordinates
Learn to find the midpoint when both endpoints have positive coordinates.
FINAL ANSWER
Given coordinates
Point A = (2, 4)
Point B = (8, 10)
Step-by-step solution
Step 1
Average the x-coordinates: (2 + 8) ÷ 2 = 5
Step 2
Average the y-coordinates: (4 + 10) ÷ 2 = 7
Step 3
Add the x-coordinates and divide by two. Then add the y-coordinates and divide by two.
