Vertices could be (-x,0), (0,x), (x,0), and (0,-x).
whats the question?
I put the wrong thing, I'm sorry. This is the question I'm having trouble with: the coordinates for a rhombus are given as (2a,0), (0,2b), (-2a,0), and (0,-2b). Write a plan to prove that the midpoints of the sides of a rhombus determine a rectangle using coordinate geometry. Be sure to include the formulas.
This is for geometry btw.
alright lol thats what im in i might be able to help... maybe :)
Thank you!
i have the perfect picture that will help you i just do not know how to show it to you on here
can you send it to me on message?
Using the diagram and connecting the dots. The top horizontal line segment is y=b and the segment is the distance of the endpoints which is a-(-a) = 2a, the same goes for the bottom horizontal segment. The bottom is y=-b The vertical segments on the left and right would be x=-a (left side) and x=a on the right. The distance from the endpoints is b-(-b)=2b
So the rectangle formed has the dimensions of 2a X 2b
Thank you so much! What about this one: verify that parallelogram ABCD with vertices A(-5,-1), B(-9,6), C(-1,5), D(3,-2) is a rhombus by showing that it is a parallelogram with perpendicular diagonals.

Thank you! btw, great taste in music!
thanks their my favorite <3
anything else? you need help with i mean
No that's it. Thank you again!
