PQ has an endpoint at (-1,2) and a midpoint at (2,6). Which is closest to the length of PQ?

Answer 1

If I understand your question, since the midpoint represents a point half the distance from either endpoint of a line wouldn't it always be closer than the endpoint?

Are you referring several choices for the length of PQ? The length can be calculated based on the midpoint formula to compare to a set of given choices.

Maybe I am not interpreting your questions correctly.
