Find the coordinates of the midpoint of a segment having the given endpoints. Then find the distance between the endpoints.

1. G(0,0), H(-3,4)
2. A(-4,-4), W(-2,2)
3. N(5,2), K(-2,8)

I will do one. I can check your work on the others if you wish.

b. midpoint (-4+-2)/2, (-4-2)/2

distance: sqrt((-4--2)^2 + (-4-2)^2)
distance; sqrt (4+36)=sqrt40
