To find the midpoints, we will use the formula below:

[tex](x_m,y_m)=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\text{ }\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex]

The points given are:

Q(5,5) R(1,3)

The coordinates are:

x₁= 5 y₁=5 x₂=1 y₂=3

substitute the values into the formula and evaluate

[tex](x_m,y_m)=(\frac{5+1}{2},\text{ }\frac{5+3}{2})[/tex][tex]=(\frac{6}{2},\text{ }\frac{8}{2})[/tex][tex]=(3,\text{ 4)}[/tex]

Hence the coordinates of the midpoints are (3, 4)
