Let ABCD be a parallelogram such that the coordinates of its three vertices A, B, C are (1, 1), (3, 4) and (-2, 8), respectively. Then, the coordinates of the vertex D are
Options
- (-4, 5)
- (4, 5)
- (-3, 4)
- (0, 11)
Correct Answer
(-4, 5)
Explanation
In a parallelogram, diagonals bisect each other. The midpoint of AC equals the midpoint of BD. Using this property with the given coordinates, we can find D at (-4, 5).
