Let G be the centroid of the DeltaABC, whose sides are of lengths a,b,c. If P be a point in the plane of triangleABC, such that PA=1,PB=3, PC=4 and PG=2, then the value of a^(2)+b^(2)+c^(2) is |

Answer» 42 `=3(|veca|^(2)+|vecb|^(2)+|vecc|^(2))` So, `9(GP)^(2)+(AB)^(2)+(BC)^(2)+(CA)^(2)` `=3(PA)^(2)+(PB)^(2)+(PC)^(2)` `RARR 9 xx 2^(2)(a^(2)+b^(2)+c^(2))=3(1^(2)+3^(2)+4^(2))` `rArr a^(2)+b^(2)+c^(2)=42` |
