Midpoint Formula Worksheet

Small groups work through two guided activities to derive the distance and midpoint formulas for the coordinate plane. The activities begin with concrete examples and move to abstract.

Go for a walk in the mall. Pupils find distances between stores on a diagram of a mall on Quadrant I. The scholars also determine the midpoint between a store and an entrance to the mall to then create their own paths and determine their...

Fractions, ratios, and proportions: what do they have to do with segments? Scholars discover the midpoint formula through coordinate geometry. Next, they expand on the formula to apply it to dividing the segment into different...

In need of a practice worksheet solving quadratic equations using the formula? Have no fear, we have one for you! This worksheet provides the formula at the top with 14 questions following using a variety of leading coefficients. 

The midpoint formula - which Sal maintains is "silly to memorize" since you simply average - is the focus of this video. Viewers will appreciate the seamless transition between algebraic and geometric concepts in this lecture.

Finding the midpoint is as simple as finding the middle. Given a graph of a segment, a video tutorial demonstrates how to find the midpoint. The instructor uses the midpoint formula and then reinforces the calculations with the graph.

It's about to get 3-D! The video shows your class how to expand the midpoint formula to find the midpoint of a three-dimensional segment. The example shown calculates the midpoint using the x-, y-, and z-coordinates.

Let's meet in the middle. Given two points on the coordinate plane, pupils use the interactive to find the midpoint. The interactive provides a graphical display of the midpoint and the midpoint formula with the coordinates of the...

By selecting the resource, you're already halfway to understanding midpoints. Pupils use a slider to locate midpoints on the coordinate plane. They connect this conceptual understanding to the formula for the midpoint of a line segment.

In response to a student question, the "question corner" mentions two different methods to prove that the Midpoint Formula truly does work.
