Using the midpoint formula, the coordinates of endpoint H are (4, -6).

The Midpoint Formula

The midpoint formula is given as: [tex](x_m, y_m) = (\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} )[/tex]

Where,

[tex](x_m, y_m)[/tex] = coordinates of the midpoint

[tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] = coordinates of the first point

[tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] = coordinates of the second point

Given the following:

[tex](x_m, y_m)[/tex] = M( 6,-4)

[tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] = G(8,-2)

[tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] = H(?, ?)

Plug in the values into the midpoint formula

[tex]M(6, -4) = (\frac{8 + x_2}{2}, \frac{-2 + y_2}{2} )[/tex]

Solve for the x-coordinate and y-coordinate separately

[tex]6 = \frac{8 + x_2}{2}[/tex]

  • Multiply both sides

[tex]6 \times 2 = 8 + x_2\\\\12 = 8 + x_2\\\\12 - 8 = x_2\\\\4 = x_2\\\\\mathbf{x_2 = 4}[/tex]

[tex]-4 = \frac{-2 + y_2}{2}\\\\-8 = -2 + y_2\\\\-8 + 2 = y_2\\\\-6 = y_2\\\\\mathbf{y_2 = -6}[/tex]

Therefore, using the midpoint formula, the coordinates of endpoint H are (4, -6).
