5-4 Midpoint Distance Formula

This math worksheet provides practice with finding the midpoint and distance between points on a coordinate plane. Students are given points and asked to: 1) Graph the points and find the midpoint and distance between them. 2) Find the midpoint of lines using the midpoint formula. 3) Find the distance between points using the distance formula. 4) Use all concepts to find the midpoint of two line segments of a triangle and the distance between those points.
