the midpoint of [KL] is (-8, 1). one endpoint is K(-6, 5). find the coordinates of the other endpoint L

Respuesta :

the correct question is

The midpoint of kl is m(–8, 1). one endpoint is k(–6, 5). find the coordinates of the other endpoint l.


we know that

the formula of midpoint is

Xm=(x1+x2)/2----> 2*Xm=x1+x2------> x2=2*Xm-x1

Ym=(y1+y2)/2----> 2*Ym=y1+y2------> y2=2*Ym-y1


let

(x1,y1)-------> (–6, 5).

(Xm,Ym)-----> (-8,1)


find (x2,y2)

x2=2*Xm-x1-----> 2*(-8)-(-6)----> -10

 y2=2*Ym-y1----> 2*(1)-5-----> -3


the point l is (-10,-3)
