उत्तर
Let A (3,-2); B (4, 0); C (6,-3) and D (5,-5) be the vertices of a quadrilateral. We have to prove that the quadrilateral ABCD is the parallelogram.
We should proceed with the fact that if the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other than the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
Now to find the mid-point P(x,y) of two points `A(x_1,y_1)` and `B(x_2,y_2)` we use section formula as,
`P(x,y) = ((x_1 + x_2)/2, (y_1+y_2)/2)`
So the mid-point of the diagonal AC is,
`Q(x,y) = ((3 + 6)/2, (-2-3)/2)`
`=(9/2, - 5/2)`
Similarly mid-point of diagonal BD is,
`R(x,y) = ((4 + 5)/2, (-5+0)/2)`
`= (9/2, -5/2)`
Therefore the mid-points of the diagonals are coinciding and thus diagonal bisects each other.
Hence ABCD is a parallelogram.

If the points P(1, 2), Q(0, 0) and R(x, y) are collinear, then find the relation between x and y.
Given points are P(1, 2), Q(0, 0) and R(x, y).
The given points are collinear, so the area of the triangle formed by them is `square`.
∴ `1/2 |x_1(y_2 - y_3) + x_2(y_3 - y_1) + x_3(y_1 - y_2)| = square`
`1/2 |1(square) + 0(square) + x(square)| = square`
`square + square + square` = 0
`square + square` = 0
`square = square`
Hence, the relation between x and y is `square`.
