Answer:

The value of a is 1 and b is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertices of a parallelogram are A(-2,-1),B(a,0),C(4,b),D(,1,2).

The diagonals of parallelogram bisects each other.

Mid point of AC = Mid point of BD

(\frac{-2+4}{2},\frac{-1+b}{2})=(\frac{a+1}{2},\frac{0+2}{2})

(1,\frac{-1+b}{2})=(\frac{a+1}{2},1)

On comparing both sides we get,

\frac{a+1}{2}=1

a+1=2

a=1

The value of a is 1.

\frac{-1+b}{2}=1

-1+b=2

b=3

The value of b is 3.
