Midpoint Calculator

Use this Midpoint Calculator to quickly find the midpoint between two points in a 2D coordinate system. Apply the midpoint formula for precise calculation.

Formula

M = ((x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2)

The midpoint formula finds the coordinates of the point exactly halfway between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂).

Manual Calculation

To calculate midpoint manually:

1. Add the x-coordinates of the two points and divide by 2.
2. Add the y-coordinates of the two points and divide by 2.
3. The result is the midpoint M(x, y).
