Question
The midpoint of 𝐶𝐷 is M (-4, 2). One endpoint is C (3, 5). Find the coordinates of endpoint D.
Hint:
Midpoint divides the line segment in two equal parts.
○ If Line has two endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) then midpoint of line segment will be
The correct answer is: (-11, -1)
- Step by step explanation:
○ Given:
The midpoint of the line is M (-4, 2).
one endpoint is C( 3, 5).
○ Step 1:
○ Let the endpoint D be (x2, y2)
○ As we know, the midpoint divides the line segment in two equal parts, and midpoint of line are given by
So,
Coordinates of Midpoint of M be:
( 3 + x2 ) = -4 2 , ( 5 + y2 ) = 2 2
3 + x2 = -8, 5 + y2 = 4
x2 = -8 - 3, y2 = 4 - 5
x2 = -11 , y2 = - 1
(x2, y2) = (-11, -1)
- Final Answer:
Hence, the coordinates of the endpoint D is (-11, -1).
