The correct Answer is:
To find the coordinates of point D such that ABCD forms a parallelogram, we can use the property that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Coordinates of Points A, B, and C:** - A = (-2, -1) - B = (0, 3) - C = (4, 0) 2. **Calculate the Midpoint of Diagonal AC:** The midpoint M of a line segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by: \[ M = \left( \frac{x1 + x2}{2}, \frac{y1 + y2}{2} \right) \] For points A and C: \[ M_{AC} = \left( \frac{-2 + 4}{2}, \frac{-1 + 0}{2} \right) = \left( \frac{2}{2}, \frac{-1}{2} \right) = (1, -\frac{1}{2}) \] 3. **Let the Coordinates of Point D be (x, y):** We need to find the coordinates of D such that the midpoint of diagonal BD is the same as the midpoint of diagonal AC. 4. **Calculate the Midpoint of Diagonal BD:** The midpoint M of points B and D is: \[ M_{BD} = \left( \frac{0 + x}{2}, \frac{3 + y}{2} \right) \] 5. **Set the Midpoints Equal:** Since M_{AC} = M_{BD}, we have: \[ \left( \frac{0 + x}{2}, \frac{3 + y}{2} \right) = (1, -\frac{1}{2}) \] This gives us two equations: - From the x-coordinates: \[ \frac{x}{2} = 1 \implies x = 2 \] - From the y-coordinates: \[ \frac{3 + y}{2} = -\frac{1}{2} \implies 3 + y = -1 \implies y = -1 - 3 = -4 \] 6. **Conclusion:** Therefore, the coordinates of point D are: \[ D = (2, -4) \] ### Final Answer: The coordinates of point D such that ABCD is a parallelogram are **(2, -4)**.
