The coordinates of the third vertex C Of the triangle ABC is (3,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

The vertices of triangle ABC are A(2,3) and B(-2,1).

The centroid of the triangle is

G(1,\dfrac{2}{3})

  • Centroid is defined as the point where the three medians of the triangle meet.

Formula:

G(x,y) = \bigg(\dfrac{x_1+y_1+z_1}{3},\dfrac{x_2+y_2+z_2}{3}\bigg)

Let (z_1,z_2) be the coordinates of vertex C of triangle ABC.

Putting the values, we get,

G(1,\dfrac{2}{3}) = \bigg(\dfrac{2+(-2)+z_1}{3},\dfrac{3+1+z_2}{3}\bigg)\\\\\Rightarrow 1 = \dfrac{2+(-2)+z_1}{3}\\z_1 = 3\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{3+1+z_2}{3}\\\\z_2 = -2

Thus, the coordinates of the third vertex C Of the triangle ABC is (3,-2)
