The circumcentre of the triangle formed by (2,-5) ,(2,7),(4,7)
Answers
Given : triangle formed by (2,-5), (2, 7), (4,7)
To find : circumcentre of the triangle
Solution:
Let say ( x , y ) is the circumcenter of triangle formed by
(2,-5), (2, 7), (4,7)
Distance of circumcenter from each vertex is same
(x - 2)² + (y + 5)² = (x - 2)² + (y - 7)² = (x - 4)² + (y - 7)²
(x - 2)² + (y + 5)² = (x - 2)² + (y - 7)²
=> (y + 5)² = (y - 7)²
=> y² + 10y + 25 = y² -14y + 49
=> 24y = 24
=> y = 1
(x - 2)² + (y - 7)² = (x - 4)² + (y - 7)²
=> (x - 2)² = (x - 4)²
=> x² -4x + 4 = x² - 8x + 16
=> 4x = 12
=> x = 3
