A is (2,12) and B is (8,2). What is the midpoint of AB?

To find the midpoint we add both x coordinates together and divide by 2. 2+8= 10, 10÷2 = 5 We then add both of the y coordinates together and divide by 2. 12+2 = 14, 14÷2 = 7Then we are given the coordinate of the midpoint by putting these two values into brackets. (Remeber along the corridor and up the stairs. So the answer is (5,7).
