If a point P(x,y)
divides a line joining points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) in the ratio a:b
then(x,y)=(ax2+bx1a+b,ay2+by1a+b)
If P is the mid point then a=b=1
⇒(x,y)=(x2+x11+1,y2+y11+1)
=(x1+x22,y1+y22)
Now co−ordinates of parallelogram's vertices are given as:
A(10,−6), B(2,−6), C(−4,−2), D(4,−2)
As diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other.
⇒Mid point of AC=Mid point of BD
Now, Mid point of AC=(10−42)
