If A(x_1,y_1)A(x1,y1) and B(x_2,y_2)B(x2,y2) are two points then the mid-point between AA and BB is given by:

C=((x_1+x_2)/2,(y_1+y_2)/2)C=(x1+x22,y1+y22)

Where CC is the mid-point.

Here, let A=(5,7)A=(5,7) and B=(-2,-8)B=(2,8)

implies C=((5-2)/2,(7-8)/2)=(3/2,-1/2)C=(522,782)=(32,12)

Hence, the mid-point between the given points is (3/2,-1/2)(32,12).
