Answer:
question :-
Let O (0,0) ,P (3,4) ,Q (6,0) be the vertices of the triangle OPQ. The point R inside the triangle OPQ is such that the triangles OPR,PQR,OQR are of equal area. Find the co - ordinates of R.
given,
vertices of the triangle :-
O = ( 0,0 )
P = ( 3,4 )
Q = ( 6,0 )
to find :-
co ordinates of R.
as they said that the point R inside the triangle OPQ is such that the triangles OPR,PQR,OQR are of equal area
i.e
we can say that R is centroid of the triangle.
.: R = (x_1+x_2+x_3/3, y_1+y_2+y_3/3)
in O = (0,0)
let ,
x_1 = 0
y_1 = 0
in P = (3,4)
let,
x_2 = 3
y_2 = 4
in R = (6,0)
let,
x_3 = 6
y_3 = 0
.: substitute in formula.
R = (0+3+6/3 , 0+4+0/3 )
= (9/3 , 4/3 )
= ( 3 , 4/3 ).
.: co ordinates of R = ( 3 , 4/3 )
