1. **State the problem:** We have a parallelogram ABCD with points A(0,0), B(2,4), and C(10,4). We need to find the coordinates of point D.
2. **Formula and rule:** In a parallelogram, the diagonals bisect each other. This means the midpoint of diagonal AC is the same as the midpoint of diagonal BD.
3. **Calculate midpoint of AC:**
$$\text{Midpoint}_{AC} = \left(\frac{0+10}{2}, \frac{0+4}{2}\right) = (5, 2)$$
4. **Let D be (x,y). Calculate midpoint of BD:**
$$\text{Midpoint}_{BD} = \left(\frac{2+x}{2}, \frac{4+y}{2}\right)$$
5. **Set midpoints equal:**
$$\left(\frac{2+x}{2}, \frac{4+y}{2}\right) = (5, 2)$$
6. **Solve for x and y:**
$$\frac{2+x}{2} = 5 \implies 2+x = 10 \implies x = 8$$
$$\frac{4+y}{2} = 2 \implies 4+y = 4 \implies y = 0$$
7. **Conclusion:** The coordinates of D are $(8, 0)$.
**Final answer:** $(8, 0)$
