The correct Answer is:
To find the orthocenter of triangle ABC given that the centroid is at \((\frac{1}{3}, -\frac{1}{3})\) and the points A, B, and C are each at a distance of 5 units from the origin, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the circumcenter and circumradius Since points A, B, and C are at a distance of 5 units from the origin, the circumradius \(R\) is 5. The circumcenter \(P\) of the triangle is at the origin, which is \((0, 0)\). **Hint:** The circumcenter is the center of the circle that passes through all vertices of the triangle. ### Step 2: Use the relationship between the orthocenter, centroid, and circumcenter The relationship between the orthocenter \(H\), centroid \(G\), and circumcenter \(P\) is given by the formula: \[ H = 3G - 2P \] ### Step 3: Substitute the known values We know that: - \(G = \left(\frac{1}{3}, -\frac{1}{3}\right)\) - \(P = (0, 0)\) Substituting these values into the formula: \[ H = 3\left(\frac{1}{3}, -\frac{1}{3}\right) - 2(0, 0) \] ### Step 4: Calculate the orthocenter Calculating the right-hand side: \[ H = \left(3 \cdot \frac{1}{3}, 3 \cdot -\frac{1}{3}\right) - (0, 0) \] \[ H = \left(1, -1\right) - (0, 0) \] \[ H = (1, -1) \] ### Conclusion The orthocenter \(H\) of triangle ABC is at the coordinates \((1, -1)\). ---
