Unit 1 Using Midpoint and Distance Formulas
Midpoint: Point in the middle of a segment A M M is the midpoint of B
Segment bisector: Point, line, or segment that cuts a segment in half A M pt. M bisects C B A M D bisects B
Perpendicular: Line that intersects at a right angle C A B D
Perpendicular bisector: Perpendicular Line or segment that bisects a segment C A M D B
Distance: Length between two points Measured in units AB Parallel lines Lines that never intersect.
1. Line bisects the segment. Find the indicated length. 17 cm DF = 34 cm
1. Line bisects the segment. Find the indicated length. 1 16 GJ = 2 in
2. M is the midpoint of the segment. Find the indicated length. Find MF. 7 x – 6 = 5 x – 6 = -2 x 3=x MF = 5(3) = 15 u
2. M is the midpoint of the segment. Find the indicated length. Find LN. 11 x – 21 = 8 x + 15 3 x – 21 = 15 3 x = 36 x = 12 LN = 11(12)-21 + 8(12)+15 = 132 – 21 + 96 +15 = 222 u
3. Find the midpoint and distance of AB, where A(2, 5) and B(2, -3). A M(2, 1) M B
3. Find the midpoint and distance of AB, where A(2, 5) and B(2, -3). A B AB = 8 u
4. Find the midpoint and distance of AB, where A(-3, 4) and B(7, 4). A M B M(2, 4)
4. Find the midpoint and distance of AB, where A(-3, 4) and B(7, 4). AB = 10 u A B
5. Find the midpoint and distance of AB, where A(5, 8) and B(1, 2). A M B M(3, 5)
5. Find the midpoint and distance of AB, where A(5, 8) and B(1, 2). A c 6 42 + 62 = c 2 16 + 36 = c 2 52 = c 2 B 4 =c AB = u
Midpoint Formula: Remember! Your answer should be an ordered pair!
Distance Formula: Don’t forget your units!
