Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove that the diagonals bisect each other we should prove that they have a common point.

From the graph we notice that this point is E.

ABCD is a paralellogram, so E is the midpoint of both diagonals.

●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●

Let's start with AC.

● A(0,0)

● C(2a+2b,2c)

● E( (2a+2b+0)/2 , (2c+0)/2)

● E ( a+b, c)

●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●

BD:

● B(2b,2c)

● D(2a,0)

● E ( (2a+2b)/2 , 2c/2)

● E ( a+b ,c)

●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●

So we conclude that the diagonals bisect each others in E.
