Let ABC be an acute scalene triangle, and O and H be its circumcentre and orthocenter respectively. Further let N be the midpoint of OH. The value of the vector sum NA + NB + NC is
Options
- A0 (zero vector)
- BHO
- C1 2 HO
- D1 2 OH
Correct answer
C. 1 2 HO
Step-by-step solution
Circumcenter (origin O ) ( O )= ( a + b + c 3 ) ; H = ( a + b + c 2 ) N = 1 4 ( a + b + c )
