Answer:</h2>
<u>Given points are</u>,
A = (-4,6)
B = (6,6)
C = (6,2)
<u>To find out the circumcenter we have to solve any two bisector equations and find out the intersection points</u>.
<u>So, mid point of AB</u> = [(- 4 + 6)/2, (6 + 6)/2] = (1, 6)
<u>Slope of AB</u> = [(6 − 6)/(6 + 4)] = 0
<u>The slope of the bisector is the negative reciprocal of the given slope</u>.
<u>So, the slope of the perpendicular bisector</u> = 0
<u>Equation of AB with slope 0 and the coordinates (1, 6) is</u>,
(y + 4) = 1(x – 6)
x – y = - 2……………(1)
<u>Similarly, for AC</u>
<u>Mid point of AC</u> = [(- 4 + 6)/2, (6 + 2)/2] = (1, 4)
<u>Slope of AC</u> = [(2 − 6)/(6 + 4)] = - 4/10
<u>The slope of the bisector is the negative reciprocal of the given slope</u>.
<u>So, the slope of the perpendicular bisector</u> = 10/4
<u>Equation of AC with slope 10/4 and the coordinates (1, 4) is</u>,
(y + 4) = -1(x – 4)
y – 3 = -x + 4
x + y = 7………………(2)
<u>By solving equation (1) and (2)</u>,
(1) + (2) ⇒ 2x = 10;
Or, x = 5
<u>Substitute the value of x in to (1)</u>
3 – y = -1
y = 3 + 1 = 4
Thus, the circumcenter is (5, 4).
