The midpoint formula identifies the center between (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂): M = ((x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2). For example, the midpoint between (1, 4) and (5, 8) is ((1+5)/2, (4+8)/2) = (3, 6). This concept is used in bisecting line segments for design layouts, dividing spaces equally, or calculating central average positions in real-world contexts—like finding a halfway point for meeting up. By combining midpoint knowledge with distance metrics, you gain robust tools for analyzing geometric relationships in academic geometry and beyond.
