Day 2Sometimes you might be given the distance between two points on a coordinate plane, but not told complete coordinates of one point. We can use the distance formula to find the missing endpoint. example

Midpoint Day 2Sometimes you are given the midpoint and one endpoint. You can use the midpoint formula to work backwards to find the segments second endpoint.
