The Midpoint Formula is the formula to calculate the midpoint between two points on the coordinate plane. It is the average of the x-coordinates and the average of the y-coordinates. To calculate add the x-coordinates of the two points and divide by two, then add the y-coordinates of the two points and divide by two.
The midpoint between the two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is midpoint formula

The Distance Formula is derived from the Pythagorean Theorem.

The distance between the two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is
