Algebra.Com's Answer #61566 by scianci(186)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Locate the midpoint of diagonal OB: ((0 + 4)/2 , ((0 + 5)/2) = (2 , 2.5) \n" ); document.write( "Then locate the midpoint of diagonal AC: ((7 - 3)/2 , (1 + 4)/2) = (2 , 2.5) \n" ); document.write( "Since they have the same midpoint, they bisect each other. \n" ); document.write( " |
