Her father felt that the game can be better understood if the position of players is represented as points on a coordinate plane.

We know that Diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other So, O is the midβˆ’point of AC & BD Finding midβˆ’point of AC Mid-point of AC = ((π‘₯1 + π‘₯2)/2,(𝑦1 +𝑦2)/2) = ((1 + 6)/2,(2 + 6)/2) = (πŸ•/𝟐,πŸ–/𝟐) Finding midβˆ’point of BD Mid-point of BD = ((π‘₯1 + π‘₯2)/2,(𝑦1 +𝑦2)/2) = ((πŸ’ + 𝒙)/𝟐,(πŸ‘ + π’š)/𝟐) Since O is mid-point of AC and BD ∴ (πŸ•/𝟐,πŸ–/𝟐) =((πŸ’ + 𝒙)/𝟐,(πŸ‘ + π’š)/𝟐) Comparing x and y coordinates Hence , x = 4 , y = 5 Thus, Position of the central midfielder (D) = (x, y) = (3, 5)
