Button b;
int x1 = b.getX();
int x2 = x1 + b.getWidth();
int y1 = b.getY();
int y2 = y1 + b.getHeight();

Hope this helps.. 

public Rect locateView(View view) {
    Rect loc = new Rect();
    int[] location = new int[2];
    if (view == null) {
        return loc;
    }
    view.getLocationOnScreen(location);

    loc.left = location[0];
    loc.top = location[1];
    loc.right = loc.left + view.getWidth();
    loc.bottom = loc.top + view.getHeight();
    return loc;
}

And I used the method this way:

  Rect r = TVGridUtils.locateView(activity.findViewById(R.id.imageview));                 

        float touchX=r.left+((r.right-r.left)/2);
        float touchY=(r.bottom);

Note: I had to get the middle point of the imageview which i touched

I think you need to add the width and height of the objects to x and y values

To know where is the object exactly for the screen

X= 0,Y= 0 TOP LEFT

X= screenWidth-objectWidth,Y= 0 TOP RIGHT

X= 0,Y= screenHeight-objectHeight BOTTOM LEFT

X= screenWidth-objectWidth,Y= screenHeight-objectHeight BOTTOM RIGHT
