  1. Use midpoint formula: Use the midpoint formula to find the other endpoint. The midpoint formula is (xm,ym)=(x1+x22,y1+y22)(x_m, y_m) = \left(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}\right). Given midpoint (1,7)(-1,7) and one endpoint (4,5)(4,5), solve for the other endpoint (x2,y2)(x_2, y_2).
  2. Solve for x2x_2 and y2y_2: Solve for x2x_2 and y2y_2. Isolate x2x_2 and y2y_2 in the equations.
  3. Check calculations: Check the calculations for any math errors.
