Lesson 1 -3: Use Distance and Midpoint Formulas
Midpoints and Bisectors: • The midpoint of a segment is the point that divides the segment into two congruent segments. • A segment bisector is a point, ray, line segment, or plane that intersects the segment at its midpoint.
In the skateboard design, bisects point T, and XT = 39. 9 cm. Find XY. at
Line n bisects the segment. Find the n indicated length. D E n A B Find AB if BC = 5/8 cm C Find DF if EF= 9 ½ m F
n A B C Find AB if AC = 21 inches
Point M is the midpoint of of. . Find the length
Identify the segment bisector of Then find PQ. 14 .
w A x + 20 M Find AC 5 x - 4 C
The Midpoint Formula: If A(x 1, y 1) and B(x 2, y 2) are points in a coordinate plane, then the midpoint M of has coordinates Midpoint (M) =
Ex: The endpoints of RS are R(1, -3) and S(4, 2). Find the coordinates of the midpoint M. Ex: The endpoints of GH are G(7, -2) and H(-5, -6). Find the coordinates of the midpoint P.
Ex: The midpoint of JK is M(2, 1). One endpoint is J(1, 4). Find the coordinates of endpoint K.
Ex: The midpoint of AB is M(5, 8). One endpoint is A(2, -3). Find the coordinates of endpoint B.
Ex: The midpoint of AB is M(3, -4). One endpoint is A(-4, -6). Find the coordinates of endpoint B.
Distance Formula: • To find the distance between two points, you will always use the Distance Formula. • The Distance Formula: If A(x 1, y 1) and B(x 2, y 2) are points in a coordinate plane, then the distance between A and B is distance (d) =
Ex: What is the approximate length of RS with endpoints R(2, 3) and S(4, -1)? Round to the nearest tenth of a unit.
Ex: What is the approximate length of AB with endpoints A(-3, 2) and B(1, -4)? Round to the nearest tenth of a unit.
Find the length of the segment. Round to the nearest tenth of a unit.
The endpoints of two segments are given. Find each segment length. Tell whether the segments are congruent. AB: A(-4, 0), K(4, 8) CD: C(-4, 2), D(3, -7)
