  1. With these formulas you can use coordinate geometry to prove theorems that address length (congruence / equality / mid point) and slope ( parallel and perpendicular.) 6.7:Coordinate Proofs (x1 , y1) (x2 , y2)

  2. 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. Examine trapezoid TRAP. Explain why you can assign the same y-coordinate to points R and A. The y-coordinates of all points on a horizontal line are the same, so points R and A have the same y-coordinates. 6-7

  3. The quadrilateral XYZW formed by connecting the midpoints of ABCD is shown below. Use coordinate geometry to prove that the quadrilateral formed by connecting the midpoints of rhombus ABCD is a rectangle. midpoint = midpoint formula 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 6-7

  4. XZ = (–a – a)2 + (b – (–b))2 = ( –2a)2 + (2b)2 = 4a2 + 4b2 YW = (–a – a)2 + (– b – b)2 = ( –2a)2 + (–2b)2 = 4a2 + 4b2 (continued) Because the diagonals are congruent, parallelogram XYZW is a rectangle. 6-7

  5. Prove the midsegment of a trapezoid is parallel to the base. Coordinate Proofs (b,c) (d,c) The bases are horizontal line with a slope equal to zero. Is this true for the midsegment? (0,0) (a,0) Conclusion: The midsegment of a trapezoid is parallel to the two bases!

  6. With some experience, you will begin to see the advantage of using the following coordinates: Coordinate Proofs (2b,2c) (2d,2c) (0,0) (2a,0)

  7. Prove the midsegment of a trapezoid is equal to half the sum of the two bases. Coordinate Proofs (2b,2c) (2d,2c) (0,0) (2a,0) 1/2 (2a+2d-2b) = a + d - b =d + a - b

  8. 2. Prove that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other If the diagonals BISECT, then they will have THE SAME midpoint. (2b,2c) (2b+2a,2c) B C D A E (0,0) (2a,0) Since the diagonals have the same midpoint, they bisect each other!
