Two vertices of a triangle are `(3,-5)a n d(-7,4)dot` If its centroid is `(2,-1),` find the third vertiex.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We have given the coordinates two vertices of a triangle are`(3,-5)`and`(-7,4)` and its centroid is `(2,-1).`
Then let the coordinates of the third vertex be `(x, y)`.
Then,
`(x+3−7)/3=2` and `(y−5+4)/3=-1`
`=>x−4=6`and`y−1=−3`
`=>x=10`and`y=−2`
Hence, the coordinates of the third vertex are `(10, -2)`. ...
