a line segment has only one midpoint "C" but the two sections AC and CE can have their own midpoint "B" and "D" and so on... A B C D E
the midpoint of
The midpoint is (0, 1)
Each coordinate of the midpoint of a line segment is the average of the correspondingcoordinates of the end points.'x' of the midpoint = average of 'x' of the endpoints'y' of the midpoint = average of 'y' of the endpointsFor segment GF, you only need the coordinates of 'G' and 'F'.G . . . (b, 0)F . . . (3b, 2b)'x' of the midpoint = 1/2 (b + 3b) = 1/2 (4b) = 2b'y' of the midpoint = 1/2 (0 + 2b) = 1/2 (2b) = bCoordinates of the midpoint . . . (2b, b)
midpoint: (x1+x2/2 , y1+y2/2) quadratic: -b plus or minus square root b squared minus 4ac divided by 2a
