If the points  (1,-1), (2,-1) and (4,-3)...

If the points  (1,-1), (2,-1) and (4,-3) are the mid points of the sides of a triangle then write the coordinates of its centroid.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let P(1,-1), Q(2,-1) and R(4,-3) be the mid-points of the sides A B, B C and C A, respectively, of triangle A B C.
Let
`A(x_{1}, y_{1}), B(x_{2}, y_{2}) and C(x_{3}, y_{3})` be the vertices of ABC.
Since, P is the mid-point of A B,
`frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}=1, frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}=-1`
Q is the mid-point of BC.
`frac{x_{2}+x_{3}}{2}=2, frac{y_{2}+y_{3}}{2}=-1`
