1 1 CHAPTER 1 Midpoint Formula Here you ll learn how to find the halfway point between two coordinate pairs with the midpoint formula. Suppose a coordinate plane were transposed over a subway map, and the blue line went in a straight line from the point (-9, 8) to the point (1, -4). If you got on the blue line at the beginning of the line and traveled halfway to the end of the line, what would be your coordinates? How would you calculate these coordinates? In this Concept, you ll learn how to use the midpoint formula to find the halfway point between any two coordinate pairs, such as the start point and end point of the blue line. Guidance Consider the following situation: You live in Des Moines, Iowa and your grandparents live in Houston, Texas. You plan to visit them for the summer and your parents agree to meet your grandparents halfway to exchange you. How do you find this location? By meeting something halfway, you are finding the midpoint of the straight line connecting the two segments. In the above situation, the midpoint would be halfway between Des Moines and Houston. The midpoint between two coordinate pairs represents the halfway point, or the average. It is the ordered pair (x m,y m ). (x m,y m )=( x 1 + x, y 1 + y ) Example A Des Moines, Iowa has the coordinates (41.59, 93.6). Houston, Texas has the coordinates (9.76, 95.36). Find the coordinates of the midpoint between these two cities. Decide which ordered pair will represent (x 1,y 1 ) and which will represent (x,y ). (x 1,y 1 )=(41.59,93.6) (x,y )=(9.76,95.36) Compute the midpoint using the formula (x m,y m )=( x 1+x, y 1+y ) (x m,y m )=(, (x m,y m )=(35.675,94.49) ) Using Google Maps, you can meet in the Ozark National Forest, halfway between the two cities. Chapter 1. Midpoint Formula
2 Example B A segment with endpoints (9, ) and (x 1,y 1 )has a midpoint of (, 6). Find (x 1,y 1 ). Use the Midpoint Formula: x 1+x = x m = x = x x 1 = 5 Following the same procedure: y 1+( ) = 6 y 1 +( )= 1 y 1 = 10 (x 1,y 1 )=( 5, 10) Example C Find the values of x and y that make (9.5,6) the midpoint of (3,5) and (x,y). Start with the formula, and solve for the variables: The midpoint formula: (x m,y m )=( x 1 + x, y 1 + y ) Substitute in the given values and variables: (9.5,6)=( 3 + x, 5 + y ) This can be re-written as two equations: 9.5 = 3 + x 6 = 5 + y Multiply each side by : 19 = 3 + x 1 = 5 + y Isolate the variables: 16 = x 7 = y Vocabulary Midpoint formula: The midpoint is the ordered pair (x m,y m ) that is halfway between the points (x 1,y 1 ) and (x,y ). The formula is: x1 + x (x m,y m )=, y 1 + y
3 3 Guided Practice On a hike, you and your friend decide to take different routes, but then meet up for lunch. You hike 3 miles north and miles west. Starting from the same point, your friend hikes 4 miles east and 1 mile south. From these points, you each walk towards each other, meeting halfway for lunch. Where would your lunchtime meeting place be in reference to your starting point? Think of the starting point as the origin of a Cartesian coordinate system. If you walk north 3 miles, that is walking straight up the graph 3 units. Walking west miles is the same as walking left units on the graph. Then you have arrived at the point (-, 3). For your friend, east is to the right (positive) and south is down (negative), so he/she arrives at (4,-1). Now you need to find the midpoint: + 4 (x m,y m )=, =, =(1,1) Your lunch time meeting place would be 1 mile north and 1 mile east of your starting point. Practice Sample explanations for some of the practice exercises below are available by viewing the following videos. Note that there is not always a match between the number of the practice exercise in the videos and the number of the practice exercise listed in the following exercise set.

5 5 CHAPTER Distance Formula Here you ll learn how to find the distance between two points on a Cartesian plane. Suppose you and your friend were on a scavenger hunt. Starting out from the same place, you walked 5 blocks east and 3 blocks north. Your friend walked 7 blocks west and blocks south. If each block were a tenth of a mile long, could you calculate how far apart you and your friend were? How would you do it? In this Concept, you ll learn how to use the distance formula to determine how far two points are from each other so that you can solve this type of problem. Guidance To understand the distance formula, we will first look at an example: Example A Find the length of the segment connecting (1, 5) and (5, ). The question asks you to identify the length of the segment. Because the segment is not parallel to either axis, it is difficult to measure given the coordinate grid. However, it is possible to think of this segment as the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Draw a vertical line and a horizontal line. Find the point of intersection. This point represents the third vertex in the right triangle. Chapter. Distance Formula
6 6 You can easily count the lengths of the legs of this triangle on the grid. The vertical leg extends from (1, ) to (1, 5), so it is 5 = 3 = 3 units long. The horizontal leg extends from (1, ) to (5, ), so it is 5 1 = 4 = 4 units long. Use the Pythagorean Theorem with these values for the lengths of each leg to find the length of the hypotenuse. a + b = c = c = c 5 = c 5 = c 5 = c The segment connecting (1, 5) and (5, ) is 5 units long. Mathematicians have simplified this process and created a formula that uses these steps to find the distance between any two points in the coordinate plane. If you use the distance formula, you don t have to draw the extra lines. Distance formula: Given points (x 1,y 1 ) and (x,y ), the length of the segment connecting those two points is d = (y y 1 ) +(x x 1 ). Example B Find the distance between ( 3, 5) and (4, ). Use the distance formula. Let (x 1,y 1 )=( 3,5) and (x,y )=(4, ). d = ( 5) +(4 ( 3)) ( 7) + 7 d = 98 = 7 units
7 7 Example C At 8 a.m. one day, Amir decides to walk in a straight line on the beach. After two hours of making no turns and traveling at a steady rate, Amir was two miles east and four miles north of his starting point. How far did Amir walk and what was his walking speed? Plot Amir s route on a coordinate graph. We can place his starting point at the origin, A =(0,0). Then, his ending point will be at the point B =(,4). The distance can be found with the distance formula. d = (4 0) +( 0) = (4) +() = 0 d = 4.47 miles. Since Amir walked 4.47 miles in hours, his speed is: Speed = 4.47 miles hours =.4 mi/h Vocabulary Distance formula: Given points (x 1,y 1 ) and (x,y ), the length of the segment connecting those two points is d = (y y 1 ) +(x x 1 ). Guided Practice Point A =(6, 4) and point B =(,k). What is the value of k such that the distance between the two points is 5? Use the distance formula. d = (y 1 y ) +(x 1 x ) 5 = (4 k) +(6 ) Chapter. Distance Formula
8 8 Square both sides of the equation. 5 = (4 k) +(6 ) Simplify. 5 =( 4 k) + 16 Eliminate the parentheses. 0 = k + 8k Simplify. 0 = k + 8k + 7 Find k using the quadratic formula. k = 8 ± 64 8 = 8 ± 36 = 8 ± 6 k = 7 or k = 1. There are two possibilities for the value of k. Let s graph the points to get a visual representation of our results. Practice Sample explanations for some of the practice exercises below are available by viewing the following videos. Note that there is not always a match between the number of the practice exercise in the videos and the number of the practice exercise listed in the following exercise set.
