Show hintHide hint
Remember to average the x and y coordinates.
3Question 3.
What formula would you use to find the distance between two points?
- Midpoint Formula
- Distance Formula
- Section Formula
Show hintHide hint
Think about how you measure straight-line distance.
4Question 4.
True or False: The midpoint of the segment between points (4,4) and (10,2) is (7,3).
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Consider how to find the average of both x and y coordinates.
Question 5.
You have points A(2,3) and B(8,6). Find the coordinates of point C that divides AB in a 1:2 ratio and calculate the distance from point C to point B.
Show hintHide hint
First, use the section formula to find C, then apply the distance formula.
