Powered by AIUsing the midpoint formula ((x + 1)/2, (5 + y)/2) = (2, 3), we obtain two equations: x + 1 = 4, which gives x = 3, and 5 + y = 6, which gives y = 1. Thus, x = 3 and y = 1 .
The midpoint formula ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2) calculates a point equidistant from both endpoints of the segment. For example, the midpoint of segment AB where A = (x1, y1) = (1, 3) and B = (x2, y2) = (3, 7) is ((1+3)/2, (3+7)/2) = (2, 5), effectively dividing AB into two halves .
By joining the points A(3,0), B(0,3), C(-3,0), and D(0,-3), a rhombus shape is formed. Each side is equal in length, but the angles are not right angles, defining a diamond shape, specifically a rhombus .
A point on the x-axis at a distance of 4 units from the y-axis is written as (4, 0), and a point on the y-axis at a distance of 6 units from the x-axis is written as (0, 6). Here, one of the coordinates is always zero, indicating no movement along the other axis .
The coordinates of the midpoint of PQ can be found using the midpoint formula: ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2). Substituting the given points, we have midpoint = ((5 + (-5))/2, (-3 + 3)/2) = (0, 0). Hence, the midpoint is (0, 0).
The figure formed is a rectangle. When these points are joined, they align parallel to the axes and their sides are equal in length and form right angles .
Plotting and joining the points A(0, 0), B(4, 0), C(4, 3), and D(0, 3) forms a rectangle. Each side meets at right angles, and opposite sides are equal and parallel .
When points A(2, 3), B(-2, 3), C(-2, -3), and D(2, -3) are plotted and joined in the given order, they form a rectangle. Opposite sides are parallel and equal in length, and all angles are right angles .
The quadrilateral PQRS is a rectangle. When the vertices P(2, 3), Q(6, 3), R(6, -1), and S(2, -1) are plotted, PQ is parallel to RS and both lie horizontally along the x-axis with equal lengths, and QR is parallel to PS and vertical with equal lengths. It has right angles at each vertex .
Coordinate geometry provides tools such as distance and midpoint formulas that allow precise calculations of lengths, midpoints, and relationships between lines, facilitating proofs of congruency, similarity, or properties of figures like rectangles, squares, and parallelograms. It generalizes geometrical concepts into algebraic expressions, enhancing problem-solving abilities .
