Math Problem Statement
Finding the average values of the respective coordinates of the two endpoints of a line segment in a coordinate plane is also known as using the ---Select--- Pythagorean Theorem Distance Formula Cartesian Formula Descartes Theorem Midpoint Formula .
Solution
The correct term is "Midpoint Formula."
The Midpoint Formula is used to find the average values of the respective coordinates of the two endpoints of a line segment in a coordinate plane. If you have two points and , the midpoint of the line segment connecting these points can be found using the formula:
