(-2,6) (5,-8)

slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope = (-8 - 6) / (5 - (-2) = -14/7 = -2 <==

midpoint = (x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2
m = (-2 + 5)/2 , (6 - 8)/2
m = (3/2, -1) <===

distance = sqrt ((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
d = sqrt ((5 - (-2)^2 + (-8 - 6)^2)
d = sqrt ((5 + 2)^2 + (-14^2))
d = sqrt (7^2 + 14^2)
d = sqrt (49 + 196)
d = sqrt 245
d = 15.65 <==
