The equations of the sides of a triangle...

The equations of the sides of a triangle are x+y-5=0, x-y+1=0, and y-1=0. Then the coordinates of the circumcenter are

A

2,1

B

1,2

C

2,-2

D

1,-2

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A


Since the triangle is right-angled, the circumcenter will be the middle point of hypotenuse, i.e., (2,1).
