Find the midpoint of diagonal WY.. . Figure WXYZ is shown. W is at 0, 2. X is at 0, 6. Y is at 6, 6. Z is at 6, 2.. . (2, 4). . (2.5, 3.5). . (3, 3.5). . (3, 4)
The diagonal WY is formed by connecting W and Y. The coordinates of its midpoint are the average of coordinates of the endpoints. Below are the calculations.
abscissa : (0 + 6) / 2 = 3
ordinate: (2 + 6) / 2 = 4
Thus, the midpoint is ate (3, 4).
Answer:
\((3,4)\)
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The formula to calculate the coordinates of the midpoint between two points is equal to
\(M(\frac{x1+x2}{2},\frac{y1+y2}{2})\)
we have that
The coordinates of diagonal WY are
\(W(0,2), Y(6,6)\)
substitute in the formula to calculate the midpoint
\(M(\frac{0+6}{2},\frac{2+6}{2})\)
\(M(\frac{6}{2},\frac{8}{2})\)
\(M(3,4)\)
