Part 1

The midpoint is

To find the midpoint of a segment with given endpoints, we use the midpoint formula:

\[
\text{Midpoint} = \left( \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} \right)
\]

Given the endpoints:
- \( (66, 66) \)
- \( (-8, -2) \)

Let's calculate the midpoint:

- The x-coordinate of the midpoint:
  \[
  \frac{66 + (-8)}{2} = \frac{66 - 8}{2} = \frac{58}{2} = 29
  \]
  
- The y-coordinate of the midpoint:
  \[
  \frac{66 + (-2)}{2} = \frac{66 - 2}{2} = \frac{64}{2} = 32
  \]

Thus, the midpoint of the segment is:

\[
\text{Midpoint} = (29, 32)
\]
