The orthocenter of the triangle formed by the lines `xy=0 and x+y=1` is

A

`(1//2,1//2)`

B

`(1//3,1//3)`

C

`(0,0)`

D

`(1//4,1//4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
3

The lines by which triangle is formed are `x=0,y=0and x+y=1`. Clearly , it is a right triangle . We know that in a right angled triangle , the orthocenter coincides with the vertex at which right angles is formed . Therefore , the orthocenter is (0,0).
