Step-by-step explanation:
Considering we have a line segment for (0,0) to (0,8).
The midpoint is (0,4).
The formule for calculate the distance between two points is:
![\sqrt{(x2-x1)^{2}+ (y2-y1)^{2}}](/tpl/images/0505/7897/bd3f5.png)
We substituye the values:
= 8
The point halfway between the endpoints is (0,4)
that is the half of the distance between the points.
