Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let 4th fourth vertex be D (x,y)

A(2 1/3,7 1/2),B(12, 7 1/2),C(12,1)

or A(7/3,15/2),B(12,15/2),C(12,1)

Mid-point of diagonal AC is P((7/3+12)/2,(15/2+1))

Mid -point of diagonal BD is P((12+x)/2,(15/2+y)/2)

(Because mid -point of diagonal is same.)

(12+x)/2=(7/3+12)/2

12+x=7/3+12

x=7/3

(15/2+1)/2=(15/2+y)/2

15/2+1=15/2+y

y=1

so fourth vertex is (7/3,1)
