Find the circumcentre of the triangle whose vertices are (-2, -3), (- 1, 0), (7, - 6).
Vertices of triangle are A(-2, -3), B(- 1, 0), C(7, - 6)
Let the coordinates of P are (x, y)
PA = PB =PC
PA = PB
On squaring both sides, we get
…………(1)
PA = PC
On squaring both sides, we get
…………(2)
On solving equations (1) & (2), We get
X = 3 and y = -3
Therefore coordinates are (3, -3)
