1.Find the other endpoint of the line segment with the given endpoint and midpoint. Endpoint 1: (−9,8) Midpoint: (2,−1)

2.Find the other endpoint of the line segment with the given endpoint and midpoint.

Endpoint 1: (0,2) Midpoint: (4,5)

1. Coordinates of the other endpoint are (13, -10)

2. Coordinates of the other endpoint are: (8, 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The endpoint (-9, 8) is located in the second quadrant. The midpoint (2, -1) is located in the fourth quadrant. That is to the right and down from the endpoint. Notice that the difference in the horizontal axis between the x-coordinates of the endpoint (-9, 8) and the midpoint (2, -1) is: | 2 - (-9) | = 11

And the difference in the vertical axis is: | -1 - 8 | = 9

So the midpoint is located 11 units to the right,and 9 units down from the endpoint. Then the other endpoint should be located also 11 units to the right, and 9 units down but from the midpoint. That is at: (2 + 11, -1 - 9) = (13, -10)

2. In this case, both, endpoint and midpoint are in the first quadrant, but notice that the midpoint is further away from the origin of coordinates.

The differences now are:

horizontal: 4 - 0 = 4

vertical: 5 - 2 = 3

and in both cases units are added to the endpoint coordinates to get to the midpoint coordinate values.

So to find the other endpoint we add 4 units to the x-value of the midpoint, and add 3 units to its y-value:

Other endpoint at : ( 4 + 4, 5 + 3) = (8, 8)
