x=4 and y=-3
You konow that diagonals of paralelogram bisect each other. So, using points a and b we got the y- coordinate of the point of intersection using mid point formula and then by applying the mid point formula again we get the x- coordinate of the point of intersection .Then you can easily find out x and y using mid point formula.
