Step-by-step explanation:
ANSWER
Opposite sides of the parallelogram are parallel
It means the slope of the two sides are equal
Slope of line passing through two points=x2−x1y2−y1
Consider, Sides AB and CD
∴ 3−16+2=5−310−2
28=28
Slope of AB= Slope of CD
Slope of BC =(5−310−6)=24
Slope of AD =(3−12+2)=24
∴ The slope of BC=Slope of AD
Opposite sides are parallel. It means it is a parallelogram.
