The correct Answer is:
To find the equation of the circumcircle of triangle ABC given the equation of side BC and the coordinates of the circumcenter and orthocenter, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given information - The equation of side BC is \( x + y - 6 = 0 \). - The circumcenter (O) is at (3, 1). - The orthocenter (H) is at (2, 2). ### Step 2: Find the image of the orthocenter with respect to the circumcenter The image of the orthocenter with respect to the circumcenter lies on the circumcircle. We can find the image (let's call it H') of the orthocenter (H) using the formula for reflection across a point. Let the coordinates of the orthocenter be \( H(2, 2) \) and the circumcenter be \( O(3, 1) \). Using the reflection formula: \[ H' = O + (O - H) = (3, 1) + ((3, 1) - (2, 2)) \] Calculating \( O - H \): \[ (3 - 2, 1 - 2) = (1, -1) \] Now, adding this vector to the circumcenter: \[ H' = (3 + 1, 1 - 1) = (4, 0) \] ### Step 3: Calculate the radius of the circumcircle The radius of the circumcircle can be calculated as the distance from the circumcenter (3, 1) to the point H' (4, 0). Using the distance formula: \[ r = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2} \] Substituting the coordinates: \[ r = \sqrt{(4 - 3)^2 + (0 - 1)^2} = \sqrt{1^2 + (-1)^2} = \sqrt{1 + 1} = \sqrt{2} \] ### Step 4: Write the equation of the circumcircle The general equation of a circle with center \((h, k)\) and radius \(r\) is given by: \[ (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2 \] Here, \(h = 3\), \(k = 1\), and \(r^2 = 2\). Thus, the equation becomes: \[ (x - 3)^2 + (y - 1)^2 = 2 \] ### Step 5: Expand the equation Expanding the equation: \[ (x^2 - 6x + 9) + (y^2 - 2y + 1) = 2 \] Combining like terms: \[ x^2 + y^2 - 6x - 2y + 10 = 2 \] Subtracting 2 from both sides: \[ x^2 + y^2 - 6x - 2y + 8 = 0 \] ### Final Equation The final equation of the circumcircle of triangle ABC is: \[ x^2 + y^2 - 6x - 2y + 8 = 0 \]

To find the equation of the circumcircle of triangle ABC given the equation of side BC and the coordinates of the circumcenter and orthocenter, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given information - The equation of side BC is \( x + y - 6 = 0 \). - The circumcenter (O) is at (3, 1). - The orthocenter (H) is at (2, 2). ### Step 2: Find the image of the orthocenter with respect to the circumcenter ...
