Enter both endpoints as real numbers.

What is a Midpoint?

The midpoint is the point exactly halfway between two endpoints.

M = ((x1 + x2) / 2, (y1 + y2) / 2)

The x- and y-coordinates are just the averages of the two endpoints.

How to Use

1. Enter both endpoints.

2. Check the live midpoint display.

3. Verify by comparing the midpoint to the average of each coordinate pair.

Worked Example

For points (2, 3) and (8, 7):

M = ((2 + 8) / 2, (3 + 7) / 2)

M = (5, 5)

FAQ

Can the midpoint be a decimal?

Yes, the coordinates can be any real numbers.

Does point order matter?

No, the midpoint is the same either way.

What if both points are the same?

Then the midpoint is that same point.

Can this work in 3D?

Yes, add a z-coordinate and average it too.
