Mid point of its sides form a parallelogram
Step-by-step explanation:
The mid point of parallelogram is
A= (-4,2) =
B = (5,1) =
C =(6,5) =
D = (-7,6) =
AB= -4+5/2, -2-1/2
P = 1/2,-3/2
BC = 5+6/2, -1+5/2
Q = 11/2, 4/2
CD = 6-7/2, 5+6/2
R = -1/2, 11/2
DA = -7-4/2, -2+6/2
S= 11/2,4/2
Hence if the slope of the opposite sides are equal then gives the vertices of parallelogram
Slop of PQ = RS
Slope of PS = QR
Slop of PQ is 4/2(-3/2)/11/2-1/2 += 7/10
Slope of RS is
4/2-11/2/-11/2-(-1/2) = 7/10
Slop of PS 4/2/-(-3/2)/-11/2-1/2 = -7/12
Slope of QR is 11/2-4/2/-1/2-11/2 = -7/12
Therefore slope of opposite sides are equal
Midpoint of quadrilateral of forms a parallelogram.
