Midpoint and Distance Formula
Solve midpoint and distance formula problems!
Plot the midpoint of segment RT by placing a dot on the graph. 2. Type in the coordinates of the midpoint. (7,-3) Midpoint of A and B Fill in the missing coordinates in the chart below. The first column is the coordinates of point A. The second column is the coordinates of point B, and the last column is the coordinates of the midpoint of A and B. Point A Point B Midpoint of Points A and B (6, 8) (2, 12) (4, 10) (-8,3) (4,7) (-2,5) (4,10) (6,2) (5,6) (-3,-10) (-13,2) (-8,-4) What is the distance between points A and B? Enter the distance between points A and B. Round to nearest hundredth (if necessary). Point A Point B Distance Between Points A and B (-6, 3) (1, 4) 7.07 (-1,5) (5,-3) 10 (3,-4) (-9,1) 13 This or That! Decide whether each scenario could be solved using the distance formulaor the midpoint formula (if we were actually given the coordinates). Drag to the correct column. Note: none of these scenarios contain enough information to actually be solved! You Could Use Distance Formula to Solve How far is point A from point B? If I walk from one location to another, how many miles did I walk? Find the length of a segment using it's endpoint coordinates. You Could Use Midpoint Formula to Solve Find the average coordinates of two points You want to meet your friend in-between your house and her house. If you both start walking straight towards each other at the same speed, at what location will you meet?
