Question 71248: Someone please show me how to do this

Determine the point A(x,y) so that the points A(x,y), B(0,3), C(1,0) D(7,2) will be the vertices of a parallelogram.
I need an example on how to solve this problem because I have a bunch more like it.
Thanks

THE ANSWER IS (6,5)
THESE PROBLEMS CAN BE VERY DIFFICULT TO SOLVE ALGEBRAICALLY. HOWEVER IF YOU PLOT THESE THREE POINTS AND DRAW THE PARALLOGRAM MAKES IT SO SIMPLE.
GIVE IT A TRY & LET ME KNOW HOW YOU DO. :)
