Question

Two vertices of a triangle are (3,-2) and (-2,3) and its orthocentre is (-6,1). Then its third vertex is

  1. (1,6)
  2. (-1,6)
  3. (1,-6)
  4. None of these

hintHint:

The line passing through the orthocenter and the vertex is always perpendicular to it's opposite side.

The correct answer is: (-1,6)


    Given That:
    Two vertices of a triangle are (3,-2) and (-2,3) and its orthocenter is (-6,1). Then its third vertex is:
    >>> Let the third vertex be (x, y) and I be the Orthocenter
    >>> Then Slope of (3,-2) and (-2,3) becomes = fraction numerator 5 over denominator negative 5 end fraction equals negative 1
    >>> Also, the slope of the IC is = fraction numerator y minus 1 over denominator x plus 6 end fraction
    >>> We know the lines AB and IC are perpendicular. Then,
    fraction numerator y minus 1 over denominator x plus 6 end fraction = 1
    ->> x+6=y-1
     x-y+7=0
    >>>Slope of AC is = fraction numerator y plus 2 over denominator x minus 3 end fraction
    >>> Slope of IB = 2 over 4 equals 1 half
    >>> We know that the line IB is perpendicular to AC.
    fraction numerator y plus 2 over denominator x minus 3 end fraction = -2
    ->> y+2 = -2x+6
    2x+y-4=0
    >>> By solving the above highlighted equations, we get the coordinates of third vertex as (-1,6).
    >>> Therefore, the coordinates of the third vertex is (-1,6).

     2x+y-4=0 and the x-y+7=0 are the equations that pass through the third vertex.
