What Is Segment Addition Postulate?

Segment Addition Postulate computes distance, midpoint, and slope between two points in the coordinate plane.

Formula

d = √((x₂−x₁)² + (y₂−y₁)²), midpoint = ((x₁+x₂)/2, (y₁+y₂)/2), slope = (y₂−y₁)/(x₂−x₁)

Frequently Asked Questions

What if the line is vertical?

A vertical line has an undefined (infinite) slope because x₂ − x₁ = 0.
