Hi expert, please assist with this question without using cross-product. Kindly show your work. I appreciate your assistance

 

Question1:
Let vectorsu =
(u1, u2) and v =
(v1, v2) be diagonals of parallelogram ABCD.
a) Find the coordinates of vectors which form the sides of ABCD.
b) Prove that the area of ABCD is equal to half of the area of parallelogram with two of
its sides given by the vectors u and v.
Hint: Draw pictures of the 2 parallelograms involved and indicate where u and v are on the
parallelograms to assist you in understanding the questions. Note: The pictures that you
draw do not constitute as answers. You must still write down the coordinates and the proof.
