You can put this solution on YOUR website! Triangle LMN looks like an isoceles triangle but we must check that
:
Coordinates of point L are (0,5)
Coordinates of point M are (6,4)
Coordinates of point N are (0,2)
:
Let X be the midpoint of LM
Let Y be the midpoint of MN
:
X = ( 0+6/2, 5+4/2 ) = (3, 4.5)
Y = ( 0+6/2, 4+2/2 ) = (3, 3)
