Mid point of diagonal AC is ((-2+4)/2, (b-1)/2)
= (1, b-1)/2)
Mid point of diagonal BD is ((a+1)/2, (0+2)/2)
= ((a+1)/2,1)
Since both the mid points are same point
((a+1)/2,1) = (1, b-1)/2)
So a+1 = 2 and (b-1) = 1
=> a = 1 and b = 2

Ironknight: Thanks a lot my friend
mathsir: you are most welcome
