Question 85

What are the coordinates of the mid point of the segment joining points C(5,2) and D(-1,-8).

Solution

Coordinates of the mid point of the segment joining points $$(x_1,y_1)$$ and $$(x_2,y_2)$$ = $$(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$$

Thus, coordinates of the mid point of the segment joining points C(5,2) and D(-1,-8)

= $$(\frac{5-1}{2},\frac{2-8}{2})$$

= $$(\frac{4}{2},\frac{-6}{2})$$

= $$(2,-3)$$

=> Ans - (B)
