I have 4 sets of co-ordinates that need to be plotted and then I need to find a point of intersection. However, I do not know exactly where the points need to intersect. What I do know is that the co-ordinates would more than likely be pairs. as below:

-493.445323, 705.4917993 -617.9098973, 885.965432

AND

-965.215678 372.421357 -865.215678 572.421357

How do I go about calculating the point of intersection? I could possible have 3-4 different solutions here. As each line may also be extended parallel.

If you mean the point of intersection of the lines passing through those points, using those points, find the gradient of the line and then substitute it into y=mx+c (the equation of a straight line) to find out its equation. Set the two equations equal to each other and solve the equation (it has a unique solution unless the lines are parallel).
