Point is (x , y) equal distance from the three vertics of this triangle.
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertices of a triangle are a(0,2y) b(2x,0) c(0,0)
Let say point at equal distance from these three is P ( p , q)
Pa = Pb = Pc
=> Pa² = Pb² = Pc²
(p - 0)² + (q - 2y)² = (p - 2x)² + ( q - 0)² = (p - 0)² + (q - 0)²
=> p² + q² + 4y² - 4qy = p² + 4x² - 4px + q² = p² + q²
Subtracting p² + q² from all
=> 4y² - 4qy = 4x² - 4px = 0
4y² - 4qy = 0
=> 4y - 4q = 0
=> q = y
4x² - 4px = 0
=> p = x
Point is (x , y) equal distance from the three vertics of this triangle.
