Mid Point Formula:
MidPoint
midpoint
where
              (x1, y1)   (x2, y2) be the end points of a line segment.

Mid Point Example:
Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the line joining (-1, -3), (-5, -7).

 x1 = -1,  y1 = -3 and
 x2 = -5,  y2 = -7

  Substitute in the formula as :
           midpoint

The above example will clearly illustrates how to calculate the Coordinates of MidPoint manually.
