Document Summary

The rectangular or cartesian coordinate system consists of the x-axis, the y-axis and the origin. Any point p can be located by using an ordered pair (x, y) of real numbers. The distance between two points p1 = (x1, y1) and p2 = (x2, y2), denoted by d(p1,p2) is y y d p p. The distance formula comes from the pythagorean theorem. The midpoint m = (x, y) of the line segment from p1 = (x1, y1) to p2 = (x2, y2) is. P1=(x1, y1) x2 - x1 d y y2 - y1. The midpoint of the line segment between two points is the average of the x and y coordinates. Find the distance between the points and the midpoint of the line segment containing the two points.
