Example 3 a) What are the coordinates of the intersection of the diagonals of parallelogram MNPR, with vertices M(–3, 0), N(–1, 3), P(5, 4) and R(3, 1)?
Example 3 continued… b) What are the coordinates of the intersection of the diagonals of parallelogram LMNO, with vertices L(0, –3), M(–2, 1), N(1, 5) and O(3, 1)?
Example 4 Write a paragraph proof. Given: Parallelogram ABCD, 𝐴𝐶 and 𝐵𝐷 are diagonals, and point P is the intersection of 𝐴𝐶 and 𝐵𝐷 . Prove: 𝐴𝐶 and 𝐵𝐷 bisect each other.
