Midpoint between two coordinate points

The midpoint calculator finds the point exactly halfway between two coordinate points in 2D or 3D space. It also computes the distance between the points.

The midpoint formula

The midpoint of two points is the average of their coordinates: M = ((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2). In 3D, the z-coordinate is averaged the same way.

The midpoint always lies on the line segment connecting the two points, dividing it into two equal halves.

M = ((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2)

Average each coordinate pair.

Limitations

This calculator finds the geometric midpoint only. For weighted averages or centroids of shapes, use a dedicated tool.

Frequently asked questions

What is the midpoint of (0,0) and (6,8)?

(3, 4). Average x: (0+6)/2 = 3. Average y: (0+8)/2 = 4.

Does the order of points matter?

No. The midpoint formula is symmetric — swapping the two points gives the same result.
