Answer:
Correct option is
A
(1,4)
Let A(−1,−6),B(2,−5),C(7,2) and D(x,y).
AC and BD are diagonals.
So, we know that the diagonals bisect each other in parallelogram, so the diagonals are divided in ratio 1:1.
Mid-point co-ordinates of AC= Mid-point co-ordinates of BD.
⇒ (
2
−1+7
,
2
−6+2
)=(
2
2+x
,
2
−5+y
)
⇒ (3,−2)=(
2
2+x
,
2
−5+y
)
Now, comparing co-ordinates
⇒ 3=
2
2+x
⇒ 6=2+x
⇒ x=4
⇒ Now, −2=
2
−5+y
⇒ −4=−5+y
⇒ y=1
∴ The co-ordinates of fourth vertex of parallelogram D(4,1).
