The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the relationship between the coordinates of the vertices of a parallelogram, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Points**: Let the points of the parallelogram be \( A(x_1, y_1) \), \( B(x_2, y_2) \), \( C(x_3, y_3) \), and \( D(x_4, y_4) \). 2. **Find the Midpoints of the Diagonals**: - The midpoint \( O \) of diagonal \( AC \) can be calculated using the midpoint formula: \[ O = \left( \frac{x_1 + x_3}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_3}{2} \right) \] - Similarly, the midpoint \( O \) of diagonal \( BD \) is: \[ O = \left( \frac{x_2 + x_4}{2}, \frac{y_2 + y_4}{2} \right) \] 3. **Set the Midpoints Equal**: Since both expressions represent the same point \( O \), we can set the x-coordinates and y-coordinates equal to each other: - For the x-coordinates: \[ \frac{x_1 + x_3}{2} = \frac{x_2 + x_4}{2} \] - For the y-coordinates: \[ \frac{y_1 + y_3}{2} = \frac{y_2 + y_4}{2} \] 4. **Eliminate the Fractions**: Multiply both sides of the equations by 2 to eliminate the fractions: - From the x-coordinates: \[ x_1 + x_3 = x_2 + x_4 \] - From the y-coordinates: \[ y_1 + y_3 = y_2 + y_4 \] 5. **Rearranging the Equations**: Rearranging both equations gives us: - For x-coordinates: \[ x_1 - x_2 + x_3 - x_4 = 0 \] - For y-coordinates: \[ y_1 - y_2 + y_3 - y_4 = 0 \] 6. **Conclusion**: The relationships derived from the coordinates of the vertices of the parallelogram can be summarized as: - \( x_1 + x_3 = x_2 + x_4 \) - \( y_1 + y_3 = y_2 + y_4 \) Thus, the correct option that represents the relationship between the coordinates of the points in a parallelogram is: \[ y_1 + y_3 = y_2 + y_4 \quad \text{and} \quad x_1 + x_3 = x_2 + x_4 \]
