ABC is a triangle formed by the lines xy = 0 and x + y = 1 . Statement - 1 : Orthocentre of the triangle ABC is at the origin . Statement - 2 : Circumcentre of `Delta`ABC is at the point (1/2 , 1/2) .A. Statement -1 is True , Statement - 2 is true , Statement- 2 is a correct explanation for statement - 12B. Statement-1 is True , Statement-2 is True , Statement -2 is not a correct explanation for Statement - 1 .C. Statement-1 is True , Statement - 2 is False .D. Statement - 1 is False , Statement -2 is True . |
Answer» Correct Answer - B The equation of the sides of `DeltaABC` are x = 0 , y = 0 and x + y = 1 . Clearly , `DeltaABC` is right angled triangle with right angle at the origin and coordinates the end-points of hypotenuse as (1,0) and (0,1) . So , orthocentre of the triangle is at the origin and circumcentre at the mid-point of its hypotenuse i.e. at (1/2 , 1/2) . |
