No, because if there is more than one midpoint then it will be like multiple line segments connected together. You can't have two midpoints or more, but you can have one to divide the line segment in half.
line graph
Yes, you can, and there are infinitely many ways of doing so. 1) Connect the midpoints 2) Notice the parallelogram shape 3) Double the length of one of the sides, and draw it parallel to that side 4) Match the ends of that line to the midpoints. 5) Voila! A quadrilateral with the 4 points as midpoints.
Every line and every line segment of >0 length has an inifinite amount of unique points.Socratic Explaination:consider ...- There are 2 distinct points defining a line segment.- Between these 2 distinct points, there is a midpoint.- The midpoint divides the original segment into 2 segments of equal length.- There are 2 distinct points used to define each segment.- Between these 2 distinct points, there is a midpoint for each segment.- These midpoints divide the segments into smaller segments of equal length.- repeat until throughly beatenThis leads to a description of an infinite amount of points for any given line segment.This does not describe all the points of a line segment. Example: the points 1/3 of the distance from either of the the original 2 points are approached but never hit.Please, feel free to rephrase this explanation. I know it's sloppy.
They have end points

Not necessarily. In a scatter plot or regression they would not.
In terms of Geometry, midpoints are specific points on a line that are an equal distance from both of its endpoints. In order to use midpoints, one must use the following equation: (A+B)/2.
Midpoint.
because a line is just a collection of points

Geometry teaches points, lines, rays, chords and segments.
