'Point' object has no attribute 'point' (Help)

I am trying to project a line perpendicular from the midpoint along a polyline that I have split at regular intervals. I am getting the below error but everything up to that point seems to be working. Can someone advise on what I am doing wrong? I guess there is an obvious simple step with transforming the original shapefile that I am missing. Thanks!

from math import atan2, pi import arcpy as arc input_shp = 'C:/Users/agood/OneDrive - USN/Python/Paper 1 Analysis/Python/Meltwater Tran_SplitLineAtPo.shp' e = 1e-10 #epsilon Cursor = arcpy.SearchCursor(input_shp) for feature in Cursor: Midpoint = feature.shape.positionAlongLine(0.5,True).firstPoint #find midpoint along each line segment #getpoints immediately before and after midpoint before = feature.shape.positionAlongLine(0.5-e,True).firstPoint after = feature.shape.positionAlongLine(0.5+e,True).firstPoint dX = after.X - before.X dY = after.Y - before.Y #return angle of midpoint section. We will plot a line at 90 degrees from this angle. angle = atan2(dX, dY)* 180/pi newpoint=Midpoint.point.pointFromAngleAndDistance(angle + 90, 400) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- AttributeError Traceback (most recent call last) In [33]: Line 16: newpoint=Midpoint.point.pointFromAngleAndDistance(angle + 90, 400) AttributeError: 'Point' object has no attribute 'point' ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
