Find the other end point of a line with given one end and mid

Given a midpoint of line(m1, m2) and one coordinate of a line (x1, y1), find the other end point(x2, y2) of a line.

Examples: 

Input  : x1 = –1, y1 = 2, and 
         m1 = 3, m2 = –6
Output : x2 = 7, y2 = 10

Input  : x1 = 6.4, y1 = 3 and 
         m1 = –10.7, m2 = 4
Output : x2 = 3, y2 = 4

The Midpoint Formula: The midpoint of two points, (x1, y2) and (x2, y2) is the point M found by using: 
M=((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2), 

We have need of a (x2, y2) so we modifies the formula 

          m1 = ((x1+x2)/2),  m2 = ((y1+y2)/2)
          2*m1 = (x1+x2),  2*m2 = (y1+y2)
          x2 = (2*m1 - x1),  y2 = (2*m2 - y1)

C++




// CPP program to find the end point of a line
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
  
// CPP function to find the end point of a line
void otherEndPoint(int x1, int y1, int m1, int m2)
{
    // find end point for x coordinates
    float x2 = (float)(2 * m1 - x1);
  
    // find end point for y coordinates
    float y2 = (float)(2 * m2 - y1);
  
    cout << "x2 = " << x2 << ", "
         << "y2 = " << y2;
}
  
// Driven Program
int main()
{
    int x1 = -4, y1 = -1, m1 = 3, m2 = 5;
    otherEndPoint(x1, y1, m1, m2);
    return 0;
}

        // find end point for y coordinates
        float y2 = (float)(2 * m2 - y1);
      
        System.out.println("x2 = " + x2 + ", "
                               + "y2 = " + y2);
    }

        int x1 = -4, y1 = -1, m1 = 3, m2 = 5;
