Question

For the following figure, name the coordinate of the midpoint of $\overline{BD}$.

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The coordinate of the midpoint of $\overline{BD}$ is $-1$.

Step 1. Check the figure .

Consider the figure.

Step 2. Apply the concept of midpoint.

The midpoint is the middle point of a line segment. It is equidistant from both endpoints.

 

Here the midpoint of $\overline{BD}$ is $C$.

Step 3. Step description.

From the figure, the midpoint of $\overline{BD}$ is $C$ and thus the coordinate of $C$ is $-1$.

 

Therefore, the coordinate of midpoint of $\overline{BD}$ is $-1$.
