The three vertices of a parallelogram are (3, 4), (3, 8) and (9, 8). Find the fourth vertex.
Consider A(3, 4), B (3, 8) and C(9, 8).
Let the coordinates of fourth vertex are D (x, y)
In a parallelogram diagonals bisect each other
Coordinate of mid point of AC =
Therefore coordinates of mid point of AC are (6, 6)
Coordinate of mid point of BD =
Coordinates of point D are
Therefore coordinates of fourth vertex D are (9, 4)
