To find: coordinates of point C.
Answer to Problem 3SAP
C.
Explanation of Solution
Given information: ABCD is a parallelogram.
A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
Calculation:
Distance between A and D = | d − 0| = d
Since the opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal, the distance between B and C is also d .
Also, the y -coordinates of A and D are equal, the side AD is parallel to the x -axis.
And, since ABCD is a parallelogram, BC is also parallel to the x -axis.
So the y -coordinates of B and C are also equal.
Thus, the x -coordinate of C = d − a .
Hence, the coordinates of C are
So the correct answer is C.
