Question: Two vertices of $ \Delta ABC $ are $ A,(-1,4) $ and $ B,(5,2) $ and its centroid is $ G,(0,-,3). $ Then, the coordinates of C are
Options:
A) $ (4,3) $
B) $ (4,15) $
C) $ (-,4,-15) $
D) $ (-15,-,4) $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
- Let C (x, y) be the required point.
Then, $ \frac{-1+5+x}{3}=0 $ and $ \frac{4+2+y}{3}=-,3 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ 4+x=0 $ and $ 6+y=-,9 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ x=-,4 $ and $ y=-15 $
So, coordinates of C are $ (-,4,-15). $
