Question
Let ABC be a triangle with equations of the sides AB, BC and CA respectively x – 2 = 0, y – 5 = 0 and 5x + 2y –10 = 0. Then the orthocentre of the triangle lies on the line
- x – y = 0
- 3x – y =1
- x – 2y = 1
- none of these
The correct answer is: 3x – y =1
The given triangle is a right angled triangle. Hence the orthocentre is the vertex containing the right angle.
Þ orthocentre is (2, 5) which lies on the lines 3x-y = 1.
Hence (B) is the correct answer.
