Endpoints: (3.2, 2.5) and (1.6, -4.5)

To calculate the x-coordinate of the midpoint of a horizontal segment, you simply take the sum of x-coordinate of the endpoints of the horizontal segment and divide this by two. An example is if one is given endpoints with th x and y coordinates 2,3 and 5,6. To find the midpoint of the x-coordinates add 2 and 5 and divide this by 2, or 7/2.
Endpoints: (1, -6) and (-3, 4) Midpoint: (-1, -1)
If the midpoint of a horizontal line segment with a length of 8 is (3, -2), then the coordinates of its endpoints are (6, -2) and (0, -4).
The midpoint is at (7, 6)
The endpoints of a line segment graphed on a Cartesian coordinate system are (2, -5) and (-4, 2). What are the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment?
Take the average of the x-coordinates, and the average of the y-coordinates.
(7,4)
Just calculate the midpoint (which is the same as the average) of both the x-coordinates and the y-coordinates.
The coordinates of the midpoint are the averages of the coordinates of the end points. So (0, 7.5).
The coordinates of the midpoint are the averages of the coordinates of the end points. So (0, 7.5).

To work out the length, you need the coordinates of both endpoints. If you have one endpoint and the midpoint, you can treat this as two endpoints and then double the answer you get to calculating the length. To calculate the length, work out the difference in x axis values and difference in y axis values. You then find the square root of (x2+y2). This is the length between the two coordinates.
To get the midpoint between two points, the x-coordinate of the resulting point is the average of the x-coordinates of your two points. Similar for the y-coordinate. Take the average of the endpoints, calculate the average of the x-coordinates.
You find the midpoint of a line segment by dividing its length by two. If you are given two sets of 'x' and 'y' coordinates as the endpoints of the segment on a graph, then you need to use the formula [X1 plus X2]/2, [Y1 plus Y2]/2 to find the coordinates of the midpoint.
