What does midpoint formula do?
It finds the co-ordinates of the midpoint of a line segment, given the co-ordinates of the two endpoints.
A line segment may have more than midpoint?
A line segment cannot have more than one midpoint or else you will be creating multiple line segments that are connected to each other. A line segment can only have one midpoint.
Midpoint of a segment?
The middle point of a line segment.
How do you find the midpoint of a segment with the endpoints -4 -14 -229?
There are only three endpoint given and these are not sufficient to define a segment of a line.
What is a line that is perpendicular to the line segment intersecting the line segment at its midpoint?
perpendicular bisector
The midpoint of a given line segment must lie on the given line segment?
true
A line that intersects a segment at its midpoint?
A line that intersects a segment at its midpoint bisects the segment.

To construct the midpoint of a given line segment fold the paper so that the given line segment lies on itself and?
the endpoints lie on each other
What does midpoint formula do?
It finds the co-ordinates of the midpoint of a line segment, given the co-ordinates of the two endpoints.
Why a line segment has only one midpoint but can have many bisectors?
All bisectors intersect the line segment at the midpoint. There can be multiple bisectors, intersecting at the midpoint at different angles, but they all intersect the line segment at its midpoint. The midpoint separates the line segment into two equal halves.
How do you find an endpoint if you are given one endpoint and the midpoint?
If you are only given one endpoint and a midpoint, you know what the middle of the line segment is. Since the midpoint is half of what the line segment's length is, all you have to do is find the distance between the endpoint given and the midpoint, then add that coordinate to your midpoint and get your other endpoint. For example: Endpoint A: (4,5) Midpoint: (6,8) Distance between: (2,3) Add (2,3) to (6,8) and get Endpoint B: (8,11).
What is a midpoint?
A point on a line segment that divides the segment into two equal parts is a midpoint.
A line segment may have more than midpoint?
A line segment cannot have more than one midpoint or else you will be creating multiple line segments that are connected to each other. A line segment can only have one midpoint.
