Step-by-step solution
Given, the slopes of the line segments are respectively, then by parametric form the coordinates of the points C can be taken respectively as \left(OAcos\alpha, OAsin\alpha\right), \left(OBcos\beta, OBsin\beta\right) \text{ and } \left(OCcos\gamma, OCsin\gamma\right) .
Given, the circumcentre of the is at origin and we know that the circumcentre is equidistant from the vertices of the triangle, hence \left({x}_{2}, {y}_{2}\right) is \left(\dfrac{{x}_{1} + {x}_{2} + {x}_{3}}{3}, \dfrac{{y}_{1} + {y}_{2} + {y}_{3}}{3}\right),∆ ABC for any triangle the circumcentre, orthocentre and centroid lie on a line.
Since, the orthocentre and circumcentre both lies onyyx⇒ ∑ cos\alpha = 0⇒ cos\alpha + cos\beta + cos\gamma = 0a + b + c = 0,{a}^{3} + {b}^{3} + {c}^{3} = 3abc,⇒ \cos^{3}\alpha + \cos^{3}\beta + \cos^{3}\gamma = 3 \cdot cos\alpha \cdot cos\beta \cdot cos\gamma\cos 3A = 4\cos^{3}A - 3cosA,{\left(\dfrac{\cos 3\alpha + \cos 3\beta + \cos 3\gamma}{cos\alpha \cdot cos\beta \cdot cos\gamma}\right)}^{2} = {\left(\dfrac{4\left(\cos^{3}\alpha + \cos^{3}\beta + \cos^{3}\gamma\right) - 3 (\text{ cos }\alpha +\text{ cos }\beta +\text{ cos }\gamma )}{cos\alpha \cdot cos\beta \cdot cos\gamma}\right)}^{2}= {\left(\dfrac{4 - 3\left(0\right)}{cos\alpha \cdot cos\beta \cdot cos\gamma}\right)}^{2}
^{2} = 144 .
