The middle point of a line segment is called?
midpoint
What is a line segment?
A line segment is a straight line that has endpoints.
Is a taut piece of thread a point line line segment ray or plane?
None of them since a thread has a finite length and finite width. A point has neither length nor width whereas a line, line segment and ray do not have any width. A plane has infinite length and width. The nearest approximation is a line segment.
What is the midpoint of a segment?
In a Cartesian Plane, it would be the middle point of a line. You get it with the formula: { [(x1+x2)/2], [(y1+y2)/2] { You will have to have two coordinates which will be the endings of the line.
Is a segment a point?
a line segment is not a point but a series of points between two definite end points
Midpoint of a segment?
The middle point of a line segment.
Why can't a line segment have two midpoints?
because it can only have one middle and and a midpoint is the middle of a line segment and mid point means middle midpoint (middle point).
The middle point of a line segment?
midpoint
What is a segment bisect?
Bisect a segment is to divide the line segment into 2
What is midpoint?
The point on a line segment that is equidistant from the ends of the segment. So pretty much a point in the middle of a segment
The middle point of a line segment is called?
midpoint
How is the midpoint of a segment different from the length of a segment?
Mostly because, assuming it just one segment, a midpoint by definition (mid- means middle) is the point at the exact middle of a line segment; whereas the length of the segment is the entire length of the segment. Pretty much, a midpoint is a point in the middle of the line, the length is the measurement of the same line.
Midpoint (-15) (-62)?
The point on a line segment that is equidistant from the ends of the segment. So pretty much a point in the middle of a segment
What is the middle of a line segment called?
The middle of a line segment is called a Midpoint.;-)
How many possibilities are there in point-segment relations?
Probably three:The point is not on the segment nor the corresponding line,The point is in the line segment,The point is not in the line segment as given but would be if the segment were extended.
Can line segement have two mid points explain?
midpoint means the middle of a segment, there can't be two different point on a segment that are both in the middle. so no !!
Are chords diameters?
By definition, diameters are lines that reach all the way across the circle, crossing the middle point. The definition of a chord is a line segment that stretches across a circle intersecting at two points that does not cross the middle point. Chords are not diameters, for the property that makes a line segment a diameter is the intersection with the middle point. If the line segment is a diameter, then it automatically means that it is not a chord, for in essence, they are opposite.
