Explanation of Solution

Given:

  Geometry For Enjoyment And Challenge, Chapter 5.2, Problem 25PSC , additional homework tip  1

Concept Used:

Parallelogram is a quadrilateral of which opposite sides are parallel and equal in length.

  Coordinates of mid-point of side having end-points(x1,y1)and(x2,y2)=(x1+x22,y1+y22)

  Slope of line joining the points(x1,y1)and(x2,y2)=y2y1x2x1

Proof:

As we know that

  Coordinates of mid-point of side having end-points(x1,y1)and(x2,y2)=(x1+x22,y1+y22)

Coordinates of mid-points of RECT are

  Coordinates of mid-point of side RE¯=(0+02,0+42)=(0,2)Coordinates of mid-point of side EC¯=(0+122,4+42)=(6,4)Coordinates of mid-point of side CT¯=(12+122,4+02)=(12,2)Coordinates of mid-point of side RT¯=(0+122,0+02)=(6,0)

Thus, the figure obtained by joining the mid-points of RECT as

Now we will prove that ABCD is a parallelogram using the coordinates of A, B, C and D.

  Since, slope of line joining the points(x1,y1)and(x2,y2)=y2y1x2x1Slope of side AB¯=m1=2006=13Slope of side BC¯=m2=4260=13Slope of side CD¯=m3=24126=13Slope of side DA¯=m4=20126=13m1=m3Slope of side AB¯=Slope of side CD¯and m2=m4Slope of side BC¯=Slope of side DA¯Thus, ABCD is a parallelogram.
