With these formulas you can use
coordinate geometry to prove
theorems that address length
(congruence / equality / mid
point) and slope ( parallel and
perpendicular.)

Examine trapezoid TRAP. Explain why you can
assign the same y-coordinate to points R and A.
In a trapezoid, only one pair of sides is parallel.
In TRAP, TP || RA . Because TP lies on the
horizontal x-axis, RA also must be horizontal.
The y-coordinates of all points on a horizontal
line are the same, so points R and A have the
same y-coordinates.

Use coordinate geometry to prove that the
quadrilateral formed by connecting the midpoints of
rhombus ABCD is a rectangle.
midpoint = midpoint formula
The quadrilateral XYZW formed by connecting the
midpoints of ABCD is shown below.
From Lesson 6-6, you know that XYZW is a parallelogram.
If the diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent, then the parallelogram is
a rectangle by Theorem 6-14.
congruent = distance formula

XZ =

( –2a)2 + (2b)2 =
YW =
(–a – a)2 + (– b – b)2 =
( –2a)2 + (–2b)2 =
4a2 + 4b2
4a2 + 4b2
Because the diagonals are congruent, parallelogram XYZW is a rectangle.

is parallel to the two bases!
Coordinate Proofs
With some experience, you will
begin to see the advantage of using
the following coordinates:

Coordinate Proofs
Prove the midsegment of a
trapezoid is equal to half the sum
of the two bases.

2. Prove that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other
If the diagonals BISECT, then they will have THE SAME midpoint.
