The equations of the perpendicular bisectors of the sides AB and AC of ABC are x-y+5=0 and x+2 y=0 respectively. If the coordinates of A are (1,-2) , then the equation of the line B C is
Options
- A14 x+23 y-40=0
- B13 x-9 y-14=0
- C9 x-14 y-25=0
- D8 x+15 y-30=0
Correct answer
A. 14 x+23 y-40=0
Step-by-step solution
A B line is perpendicular to E O and passes through vertex A , equation of A B is x+y+1=0 Co-ordinates of E= ( x₁+1 2 , y₁-2 2 ) which is also intersection point of A B with aligned & x-y+5=0 . So, x₁+1 2 =-3 ; y₁-2 2 =2 & (x₁, y₁ )=(-7,6) aligned Similarly, equation of A C is y=2 x-4 And co-ordinates of F= ( x₂+1 2 , y₂-2 2 ) Which is also intersection point of A C with x+2 y=0 So, x₂+1 2 = 8 5 ; y₂-2 2 = 4 5 (x₂, y₂ )= ( 11 5 , 2 5 ) So, the equation of side B C : y-6= 2 5 -6 11 5 +7 (x+7) 14 x+23 y-40=0
