Section 1.1 - Distance and Midpoint Formula

1) Write the distance formula; show an appropriate sketch

2) Write the midpoint formula; label the midpoint on the sketch of part (1).

3) In a coordinate system, plot the points A(-2, 5) and B(3, -5). Use the formulas to determine the distance

AB and the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment AB.

4) Solve here problem #108 shown on the next page. Show sketch of the situation. M(5, -4) is the

midpoint of segment AB. If B = (7, -2), find the coordinates of point A.
