Given the coordinates of the endpoints of line segment GH as the following, G(4, 10) and H(–2, –6).
Mohamed was trying to find the coordinates of the midpoint of line segment GH.
Below is his answer, check whether he is correct or not, if not, spot his mistakes.

Mohamed’s
The formula of the midpoint is: M = x1+ x22, y1+ y22
M = 4 +(-2)2, 10 + 62
M = (1, 8)

(-1,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given coordinates are ,

Midpoint can be calculated by finding the mean of x coordinates and y coordinates . As ,

→ Midpoint = ( 4-2/2 , 10-6/2)

→ Midpoint = ( -2/2 , -4/2 )

→ Midpoint = ( - 1 , -2)

trapezoid

step-by-step explanation:

first i plotted all my points on a grid graph

i made sure all of them were in the correct quadrant

then i saw it was a trapezoid or a quadrilateral

i think the length is 12 and the width is 17
