How do you find the coordinates of the other endpoint of a segment with the given Endpoint: (6,8) midpoint: (1,7)?

Answer 1

To find the coordinates of the other endpoint of a segment, you can use the midpoint formula. The midpoint formula states that the coordinates of the midpoint of a segment are the average of the coordinates of its endpoints.

Given the endpoint (6,8) and the midpoint (1,7), we can use the midpoint formula to find the coordinates of the other endpoint.

The midpoint formula is: Midpoint = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2)

Let's substitute the given values into the formula: (1,7) = ((6 + x2)/2, (8 + y2)/2)

Now, we can solve for x2 and y2: 1 = (6 + x2)/2 7 = (8 + y2)/2

By solving these equations, we can find the values of x2 and y2, which will give us the coordinates of the other endpoint.

#(-4, 6)#

#M = (A + B)/2#

#(1,7) = ((6,8) + (x,y))/2#

#(2,14) = (6,8) + (x,y)#

#(2-6,14-8) = (x,y)#

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
