Question
Three vertices of a parallelogram are
(
a
+
b
,
a
−
b
)
,
(
2
a
+
b
,
2
a
−
b
)
and
(
a
−
b
,
a
+
b
)
taken in a order, the fourth vertex is
(
−
b
,
b
)
If true enter

Solution
Let D be the fourth vertex.
D

x
,
y
)
Given,
C
(
a
−
b
,
a
+
b
)
Let P be the mid point of
A
(
a
+
b
,
a
−
b
)
,
B
(
2
a
+
b
,
2
a
−
b
)
coordinate of mid point of
A

=
(
2
