Answer:
Other end point is (11,-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the formula for the mid point is given by
[tex](x,y)=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex]
We have been given that
Mid point is m(8,2)
one end point is p(5,6)
Let the other end point is (a,b)
Hence, applying the mid point formula for these values, we get
[tex](8,2)=(\frac{5+a}{2},\frac{6+b}{2})[/tex]
Thus, we have
[tex]\frac{5+a}{2}=8\\\\5+a=16\\\\a=11[/tex]
Similarly, we have
[tex]\frac{6+b}{2}=2\\\\6+b=4\\\\b=-2[/tex]
Therefore, the other end point is (11,-2)
