Quadrilateral jklm has vertices j(–7, –2), k(–2, –2), l(–3, –4), and m(–6, –4). find the midpoints of each of the sides jm andkl.

We calculate the midpoint by taking the average of the x- and y-coordinates of both points. For side JM, with point J(-7, -2) and point M(-6, -4), we average the x-coordinates to get (-7 - 6) / 2= -13/2, and the y-coordinates average to (-2 - 4) / 2 = -3. So the midpoint of side JM is (-13/2, -3).
The calculation is similar for side KL: (-2 - 3) / 2 = -5/2, and (-2 - 4) / 2 = -3, so the midpoint of side KL is (-5/2, -3).

To find the midpoint of a segment (or the midpoint between two points - here the endpoints of the side) we use the midpoint formula. What it comes down to is finding the "average" of the x-coordinate and the "average" of the y-coordinate.

The formula is as follows. The midpoint of the segment with endpoints and is given by

Let us find the midpoint of side JM. It does not matter which point we designate with the 1s and which we designate with the 2s so let's let J (-7,2) = and M (-6,-4) = .

Now we plug these into the formula as follows:

Let us now find the midpoint of side KL. It does not matter which point we designate with the 1s and which we designate with the 2s so let's let K (-2,-2) = and L (-3,-4) =

Now we plug these into the formula as follows:

C. i possibility the answer to this

How many groups are there?
