Correct answer
D. 34
Step-by-step solution
Centroid of triangle with vertices (4, p,-3),(-1,-1,2),(3,5,-8) is ( 4-1+3 3 , p-1+5 3 , -3+2-8 3 ) which is (2, 4+p 3 ,-3 ) . Mid-point of (1,4,-2)(q, 2,-4) is ( 1+q 2 , 3,-3 ) As both points are, array rlrl & & 2 & = 1+q 2 and 4+p 3 =3 & p & =5, q=3 & p^2+q^2 & =25+9=34 array
