What is the other endpoint if the midpoint is (3,2) and the endpoint is (6,8)
\n" ); document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "Since we have the coordinates of the midpoint, we use the midpoint formula: \"%28x%5B1%5D+%2B+x%5B2%5D%29%2F2\";\"%28y%5B1%5D+%2B+y%5B2%5D%29%2F2\", with:
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5B1%5D\", \"y%5B1%5D\", \"%28x%5B1%5D+%2B+x%5B2%5D%29%2F2\", and \"%28y%5B1%5D+%2B+y%5B2%5D%29%2F2\" being, 6, 8, 3, and 2, respectively.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, \"%28x%5B1%5D+%2B+x%5B2%5D%29%2F2\";\"%28y%5B1%5D+%2B+y%5B2%5D%29%2F2\" becomes: \"%286+%2B+x%5B2%5D%29%2F2+=+3\";\"%288+%2B+y%5B2%5D%29%2F2+=+2\"
\n" ); document.write( "We now have: \"6+%2B+x%5B2%5D+=+6\" ------ Cross-multiplying
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5B2%5D+=+6+-+6\"_____\"x%5B2%5D+=+0\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"8+%2B+y%5B2%5D+=+4\" ------ Cross-multiplying
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%5B2%5D+=+4+-+8\"_____\"y%5B2%5D+=+-+4\"
\n" ); document.write( "Other end-point: (\"highlight_green%280%29\", \"highlight_green%28-+4%29\") \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
