The correct Answer is:
To find the third vertex \( C(h, k) \) of the right-angled isosceles triangle with vertices \( A(9, -9) \) and \( B(1, 3) \), we will use the properties of the triangle and the distance formula. ### Step 1: Understand the Properties of the Triangle Since \( A \) and \( B \) are the ends of a right-angled isosceles triangle, the lengths of the sides \( AC \) and \( BC \) must be equal, i.e., \( AC = BC \). ### Step 2: Apply the Distance Formula Using the distance formula, we can express the lengths \( AC \) and \( BC \): - The distance \( AC \) is given by: \[ AC = \sqrt{(h - 9)^2 + (k + 9)^2} \] - The distance \( BC \) is given by: \[ BC = \sqrt{(h - 1)^2 + (k - 3)^2} \] ### Step 3: Set the Distances Equal Since \( AC = BC \), we can set the two equations equal to each other: \[ \sqrt{(h - 9)^2 + (k + 9)^2} = \sqrt{(h - 1)^2 + (k - 3)^2} \] ### Step 4: Square Both Sides To eliminate the square roots, we square both sides: \[ (h - 9)^2 + (k + 9)^2 = (h - 1)^2 + (k - 3)^2 \] ### Step 5: Expand Both Sides Expanding both sides, we get: \[ (h^2 - 18h + 81) + (k^2 + 18k + 81) = (h^2 - 2h + 1) + (k^2 - 6k + 9) \] ### Step 6: Simplify the Equation Combining like terms: \[ h^2 + k^2 - 18h + 18k + 162 = h^2 + k^2 - 2h - 6k + 10 \] Cancelling \( h^2 \) and \( k^2 \) from both sides: \[ -18h + 18k + 162 = -2h - 6k + 10 \] ### Step 7: Rearrange the Equation Rearranging gives: \[ -18h + 2h + 18k + 6k + 162 - 10 = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ -16h + 24k + 152 = 0 \] ### Step 8: Solve for \( h \) We can express \( h \) in terms of \( k \): \[ 16h = 24k + 152 \] \[ h = \frac{24k + 152}{16} \] \[ h = \frac{3k + 19}{2} \] ### Step 9: Find Possible Values for \( C \) To find integer coordinates for \( C(h, k) \), we can substitute integer values for \( k \) and calculate \( h \). ### Step 10: Check Possible Points We will check the integer points that satisfy the triangle's properties. Let’s check some integer values for \( k \): 1. If \( k = 0 \): \[ h = \frac{3(0) + 19}{2} = \frac{19}{2} \quad \text{(not an integer)} \] 2. If \( k = 1 \): \[ h = \frac{3(1) + 19}{2} = \frac{22}{2} = 11 \quad \text{(point (11, 1))} \] 3. If \( k = 2 \): \[ h = \frac{3(2) + 19}{2} = \frac{25}{2} \quad \text{(not an integer)} \] 4. If \( k = 3 \): \[ h = \frac{3(3) + 19}{2} = \frac{28}{2} = 14 \quad \text{(point (14, 3))} \] Continuing this process will yield possible integer coordinates for \( C \). ### Final Answer After checking various integer values, we find that the third vertex \( C \) can be \( (11, 1) \) or \( (14, 3) \) depending on the orientation of the triangle.
