The three vertices of a parallelogram are (3, 4) (3, 8) and (9, 8). Find the fourth vertex.
उत्तर
Let A(3,4), B(3,8) and C(9,8) be the three given vertex then the fourth vertex D(x,y)
Since ABCD is a parallelogram, the diagonals bisect each other.
Therefore the mid-point of diagonals of the parallelogram coincide.
Let p(x,y) be the mid-point of diagonals AC then,
`P(x,y) = ((3 + 9)/2, (4 + 8)/2)`
P(x,y) = (6,6)
Let Q(x,y) be the mid point of diagonal BD. then
`Q(x,y) = ((3 + x)/2, (8 + y)/2)`
Coordinates of mid-point AC = Coordinates of mid-point BD
P(x,y) = Q(x,y)
`=> (6,6) = ((3 + x)/2, (8 + y)/2)`
Now equating individual components
`=> 6 = (3 + x)/2` and `6 = (8 + 4)/2`
=> 3 + x = 12 and 8 + y = 12
=> x = 9 and y = 4
Hence, coordinates of fourth points are (9, 4)

(Street Plan): A city has two main roads which cross each other at the centre of the city. These two roads are along the North-South direction and East-West direction.
All the other streets of the city run parallel to these roads and are 200 m apart. There are 5 streets in each direction. Using 1cm = 200 m, draw a model of the city on your notebook. Represent the roads/streets by single lines.
There are many cross- streets in your model. A particular cross-street is made by two streets, one running in the North - South direction and another in the East - West direction. Each cross street is referred to in the following manner : If the 2nd street running in the North - South direction and 5th in the East - West direction meet at some crossing, then we will call this cross-street (2, 5). Using this convention, find:
- how many cross - streets can be referred to as (4, 3).
- how many cross - streets can be referred to as (3, 4).
