  1. i would pick out A for it that's the most important one  


  2. Find the center by figuring the intersection

    of the lines AC and BD.

    AC: y = 185/90 - x/9

    BD: y = 8.5 - 5x/2

    Intersection is the point

    (116/43, 8.5 - 5/2*116/43)

    approximately (2.698, 1.756).

    Then compute points A' B' C' D' which lie

    on those lines at 5x the distance

    of A, B, C, D from P.

    Call the coordinates of P (x,y)

    Then coordinates of A' are (x - (x-.05)*5, (y - (y-2)*5)

    and similarly for B' C' D'

    .
