Answer

D (0,0) E (2a, 0) F (a, b)

Work Step by Step

D is the origin, so the coordinates are (0, 0) E is on the x-axis, therefore the coordinates are (2a, 0) F is on the perpendicular bisector of DE so its x coordinate is a, but we don't know the height of the triangle, so we need another variable: F (a, b).
