Edexcel IGCSE Math A Higher 3.3.E midpoint of a line segment
Practise midpoint questions by averaging the x-values and y-values or using grid symmetry to locate the exact halfway point.
How this is tested
- Calculate a midpoint by averaging the two x-coordinates and the two y-coordinates.
- Mark a midpoint on a grid and label it when a line segment or rectangle is shown.
