The midpoint of QR is M (-3,-5) One endpoint is Q (-11,-3) Find the coordinates of the other endpoint
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The coordinates of the midpoint of a line segment are
\n" ); document.write( "the average of the corresponding coordinates of the endpoints.
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Let the other endpoint be (x,y)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Equations:
\n" ); document.write( "(x+-11)/2 = -3
\n" ); document.write( "x-11 = -6
\n" ); document.write( "x = 5
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "(y+-3)/2 = -5
\n" ); document.write( "y-3 = -10
\n" ); document.write( "y = -7
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Other end point is (5,-7)
\n" ); document.write( "=============================
