It finds the co-ordinates of the midpoint of a line segment, given the co-ordinates of the two endpoints.
The middle point of a line segment.
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.
There are only three endpoint given and these are not sufficient to define a segment of a line.
Yes
true
A line that intersects a segment at its midpoint bisects the segment.

It finds the co-ordinates of the midpoint of a line segment, given the co-ordinates of the two endpoints.
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.
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).
A point on a line segment that divides the segment into two equal parts is a midpoint.
I line that intersects a segment at its midpoint.
