Concept explainers
a.
The prove that the diagonals of the figure determined by the given points bisect each other.
Given:
Square,
Calculation:
In order to prove that the diagonals of the square defined by the given points, show that the midpoint of the diagonals connecting the opposite corners is the same. That is, the midpoint of the diagonal connecting the vertices
Since the midpoints of the diagonals are same, it implies that the diagonals of the square bisect each other.
b.
The prove that the diagonals of the figure determined by the given points bisect each other.
Given:
Parallelogram
Calculation:
In order to prove that the diagonals of the parallelogram defined by the given points, show that the midpoint of the diagonals connecting the opposite corners is the same. That is, the midpoint of the diagonal connecting the vertices
Since the midpoints of the diagonals are same, it implies that the diagonals of the parallelogram bisect each other.
