1. Problem Description
Given a parallelogram constructed on vectors and , express the vectors , , , and in terms of and , where is the intersection point of the diagonals and .
2. Solution Steps
Let the parallelogram be .
Since is the intersection of diagonals of a parallelogram, it is the midpoint of both diagonals.
(Trivial)
Since is the midpoint of , we have , so .
Also, .
So,
Since is the midpoint of , we have , so .
Also, .
Or, .
