1. A(2,4) ———•——— B(-3,-1)

   [tex]\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\: {C(x,y)} [/tex]

   Using midpoint formula

   [tex]\sf{x = \dfrac{x1 + x2 }{2}}[/tex]

   [tex]\sf{x = \dfrac{2 + (-3) }{2}}[/tex]

   [tex]\pink\sf{x = \dfrac{-1}{2}}[/tex]

   And,

   [tex]\sf{y = \dfrac{y1 + y2 }{2}}[/tex]

   [tex]\sf{x = \dfrac{4 + (-1) }{2}}[/tex]

   [tex]\sf{x = \dfrac{3 }{2}}[/tex]

   Therefore , Co-ordinate of Center (C) is ([tex]\sf\dfrac{-1}{2} , \dfrac{3}{2}[/tex])
