The points A(x1, y1), B(x2, y2) and C(x3, y3) are the vertices of ∆ABC. What are the coordinates of the centroid of the triangle ABC?

योग

उत्तर

According to the question,

The vertices of ΔABC = A, B and C

Coordinates of A, B and C = A(x1, y1), B(x2, y2), C(x3, y3)

Coordinate of the centroid of the ΔABC;

= `("Sum of all coordinates of all vertices"/3, "Sum of all coordinates of all vertices"/3)`

= `((x_1 + x_2 + x_3)/3, (y_1 + y_2 + y_3)/3)`

Read the following passage:

Jagdish has a field which is in the shape of a right angled triangle AQC. He wants to leave a space in the form of a square PQRS inside the field for growing wheat and the remaining for growing vegetables (as shown in the figure). In the field, there is a pole marked as O.

Based on the above information, answer the following questions :

  1. Taking O as origin, coordinates of P are (–200, 0) and of Q are (200, 0). PQRS being a square, what are the coordinates of R and S?
  2. (a) What is the area of square PQRS?
