The coordinates of the point of intersection of it's diagonals is  (\dfrac{5}{2},\4).

Explanation:

  • The diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other .
  • The point of intersection of it's diagonals is the midpoint of each diagonal.

Given : The coordinates of two opposite vertices of a parallelogram are (4,5)&(1,3).

The point of intersection of it's diagonals =  midpoint of line segment joining (4,5) & (1,3).      (1)

The midpoint of line segment joining (a,b) and (c,d) is (\dfrac{a+c}{2},\dfrac{b+d}{2})

∴ Midpoint of line segment joining (4,5) & (1,3) is (\dfrac{4+1}{2},\dfrac{5+3}{2})

∴ Midpoint of line segment joining (4,5) & (1,3) is (\dfrac{5}{2},\4)

From (1), The point of intersection of it's diagonals =  midpoint of line segment joining (4,5) & (1,3) is  (\dfrac{5}{2},\4).

Hence, the coordinates of the point of intersection of it's diagonals is  (\dfrac{5}{2},\4).
