Midpoint of a Line Segment. The Midpoint of a line segment is the point that is halfway between the endpoints of the segment The coordinates of the midpoint of a line segment whose endpoints are at (x1, y1) & (x2, y2) are given by (x1+x2)/2,(y1+y2)/2.

The Midpoint of a line segment is the point that is halfway between the endpoints of the segment • The coordinates of the midpoint of a line segment whose endpoints are at (x1, y1) & (x2, y2) are given by (x1+x2)/2,(y1+y2)/2
If the vertices of parallelogram WXYZ are W(3,0), X(9,3), Y(7,10), & Z(1,7), proves that the diagonals bisect each other, or intersect at their midpoints. • Hint: use distance formula.
