Let:


A=(x1,y1)

The coordinate of the missing point of the parallelogram

We can find the x-coordinate x1 as:


\begin{gathered} (2,9);(2,3);(3,0);(x1,y1) \\ since \\ 2=2 \\ x1=3 \end{gathered}

And for y1:


\begin{gathered} \Delta y_{\text{ }}of_{\text{ }}(2,3)_{\text{ }}and_{\text{ }}(3,0)\colon_{\text{ }}0-3=-3 \\ so\colon \\ y1=9-3=6 \end{gathered}

Therefore:


A=(3,6)

The parallelogram will be:
