Find the coordinates of midpoint of the segment joining the points (22, 20) and (0, 16).

Let the given points be A(22, 20) and B(0, 16).Let the coordinate of the midpoint be (x, y). 

Using the midpoint formula

\[x = \frac{22 + 0}{2}\]

\[ \Rightarrow 2x = 22\]

\[ \Rightarrow x = 11\] 

\[y = \frac{20 + 16}{2}\]

\[ \Rightarrow 2y = 36\]

\[ \Rightarrow y = 18\]

(x, y) = (11, 18)
