I think you mean "What would be the missing endpoint if S is the midpoint..."
Use the midpoint formulas:
and
Substitute the coordinates of S for
and
and the coordinates of T for
and
. Then solve the two equations for
and
which will be the coordinates of R.

My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
