Question

Estela and Gavin make a poster together. Estela asks Gavin to draw a quadrilateral

Answer 1

Answer: The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. Steps (a), (b), and (c) outline proof of this theorem. (See Exercise 25 for a particular instance of this theorem.) (a) In the parallelogram OA BC shown in the figure, check that the coordinates of must be  (b) Use the midpoint formula to calculate the midpoints of diagonals  and  (c) The two answers in part (b) are identical. This shows that the two diagonals do indeed bisect each other, as we wished to prove. (FIGURE CAN'T COPY)
