If the coordinates of the vertices of triangle `A B C` are `(-1,6),(-3,-9)` and `(5,-8)` , respectively, then find the equation of the median through `Cdot`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
13x+14y+47=0
The required equation fo median is
`y+8 = (-(3//2)+8)/(-2-5)(x+5)`
or 13x+14y+47=0
