The Midpoint is a point that has average distance between the two given points. Midpoint is represented by the symbol M. This worksheet help you to understand how to calculate the midpoint between two points.
Midpoint Formula:
M =
Example problem:
Coordinates (X1,Y1) = (1,2)
Coordinates (X2,Y2) = (3,4)
By substituting these values in the above formula, we get
M = ((x1+x2)/2,(y1+y2)/2)
= ((1+3)/2,(2+4)/2)
= (4/2,6/2)
= (2,3)
The midpoint between two points is (2,3)
When you try such calculations on your own, this midpoint between two points calculator can be used to verify the results of your calculations.
