To calculate: To find the x-coordinate of point G
Answer to Problem 3CYP
x-coordinate of point G is
Explanation of Solution
Given: Trapezoid ABCD shown below,
Formula Used:
Coordinates of mid-point of side having points
Calculation:
Trapezium is given as follows:
In above figure, point F is mid-point of side AB
Also, given that
Thus, line FG is bisects the side CD, i.e. G is mid-point of side CD
Therefore, coordinates of mid-point of CD is calculated as follows:
Conclusion:
Hence, x-coordinate of point G is
