Question

Q:-midpoint of sides AB and AC of a triangle ABC are (3,5) and (-3,-3) respectively ,then the length of BC is a)10 (b)20 (c)15 (d)30

Dear Rangavajjula, A = x1,y1 , B= x2,y2 , c = x3,y3 3 = x1+x2/2 ,...1 5 = y1 + y2/2........2 -3 = x1 + x3 /2 .......3 , -3 = y1 + y3 /2........4 BC2 = (x3 - x2 )2 + (y3-y2)2 find x3 - x2 from eq 1 and 3, y3-y2 from eq 2 and 4...
