A written proof that shows how the midpoint formula works.

Step by step instructions are given for the students to draw a segment, find the midpoint, and label the coordinates of the two endpoints and the midpoint. The students then record the data in a table for various segments. Based on the...

Twenty problems present a variety of problems working with various aspects of finding the midpoint of a line segment. They are given with each step to the solution cleverly revealed one at a time. You can work each step of the problem...

The purpose of the activity is for students to verify the results of the Midpoint Formula using the dynamic capabilities of Cabri Jr.

Midpoint Quadrilaterals are quadrilaterals that are formed when consecutive midpoints of a quadrilateral are connected. This activity will use Cabri Jr. to investigate what properties an exterior quadrilateral has if its midpoint...

This task provides a construction of the angle bisector of an angle by reducing it to the bisection of an angle to finding the midpoint of a line segment. Aligns with G-CO.D.12.

Suppose that ABCD is a parallelogram and that M and N are the midpoints of lines AB and CD respectively. Learners are asked to prove that MN=AD, and that the line MN is parallel to line AD. Aligns with G-CO.C.11.

Students review the basic geometry definitions of segment and midpoint, and learn to use drawing and measurement tools. They explore changes in measurements as the figure is altered.

[Free Registration/Login Required] Students explore the concept of midpoints and segment bisectors by navigating through the interactive learning module and then answering questions that go along with the module. Students can also learn...

The goal of this task is to use similarity transformations to relate two triangles. The triangles are obtained by taking midpoints of two sides of a given triangle. Aligns with HSG-CO.C.10.

In this task, students must prove that angles and triangles are congruent and that a parallel line passes through the midpoints of two sides of the larger triangle. Aligns with G-SRT.B.4.

For this task, young scholars are asked to draw a quadrilateral so that no two sides are congruent, no two angles are congruent, and no two sides are parallel. The task gives students the opportunity to prove that if we join the...

A detailed and comprehensive site dealing with the Left and Right Rectangle Rules and the Midpoint Rule. Includes formulas and graphs.

Examples for using the midpoint formula are given at this site.

Investigate finding the midpoint of a line segment and derive the formula for the midpoint of two points on a coordinate plane. This lesson plan was created by exemplary Alabama Math Teachers through the AMSTI project.

Students are given methods with pictures to solve for the midpoint of a line segment.

Self checking using the attached LearningCheck .edc file. These six questions, maybe used for class warmup, review, or checking for understanding.

This site, which is provided for by the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, has a worked example the student can examine on the midpoint rule

This lesson defines midpoint and segment bisector, and provides examples that demonstrate how to distinguish between the two. It is 7 of 10 in the series titled "Midpoint vs. Segment Bisector."

Learn about the midpoint of a line segment with this helpful reference tool. Provides a detailed definition and an interactive activity that enhance further explanation. Includes links to related topics.

This lesson demonstrates how to find a missing x or y coordinate of a segment when given the midpoint of the two points on a coordinate plane. It is 2 of 5 in the series titled "Finding a Missing Coordinate using the Midpoint Formula."
