Question

Find the circumcenter of the triangle with vertices (-2, 5), (-2, -3) and (4, -3).

Answer 1

Explanation:

This is a right triangle.....the circumcenter will be at the midpoint of the hypotenuse

The endpoints of the hypotenuse are (-1, -1) and (5, 1)

So the midpoint - and circumcenter - is [ ( 5 - 1) / 2 , (1 - 1 ) / 2 ] = ( 2 , 0)
