Read each question carefully and follow the instructions to find the midpoint of the line segments.

1. The midpoint of a line segment is the point that divides the segment into two parts.

2. If a line segment has endpoints A and B, the midpoint is exactly between A and B.

1. What is the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints at 2 and 8 on a number line?

2. Find the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints at -3 and 5.

1. Which formula is used to find the midpoint (M) of a line segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

M = ((x1 - x2)/2, (y1 - y2)/2)

M = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2)

M = (x1 + x2, y1 + y2)

M = (x2 - x1, y2 - y1)

1. Find the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints (1, 2) and (5, 6).

2. Calculate the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints (-4, 0) and (2, 4).

1. The midpoint of a line segment is always one of its endpoints.
