"given coordinates of endpoints say"given coordinates of endpoints say
x_1,y_1)" and "(x_2,y_2)" then"x1,y1) and (x2,y2) then
"midpoint "=[1/2(x_1+x_2),1/2(y_1+y_2)]midpoint =[12(x1+x2),12(y1+y2)]
"let "(x_1,y_1)=(3,8)" and "(x_2,y_2)=(5,4)let (x1,y1)=(3,8) and (x2,y2)=(5,4)
"midpoint "=[1/2(3+5),1/2(8+4)]midpoint =[12(3+5),12(8+4)]
