Assuming that point C is on the X axis, we might as well set point C (a, 0).
A( 1,1) is known; B(3,- 1)
Then, the slope of AC KAC =1-a; Slope of BC Kbc=a-3
As we all know, ACB = 90.
So, AC⊥BC
Then Kac*Kbc=- 1
= = = & gt( 1-a)*(a-3)=- 1
= = = & gt-a? +4a-3+ 1=0
= = => Answer? -4a+2=0
= = = & gta=[4 √( 16-8)]/2=2 √2
Then, point C (2 √ 2,0)
2、
A(4, 1); C( 1,4)
Then the midpoint of AC is (5/2, 5/2); The slope of AC connection line is k=- 1.
Then, the slope of the vertical line in AC is k= 1.
So the equation of the midline is: y-(5/2)= 1*[x-(5/2)].
= = = & gty=x
So point B (5, 5) is on the vertical line of AC.
3、
Connect the AD as shown.
Then we can get from Pythagorean theorem:
AE? =AD? De?
De? =BD? -Really?
= = = & gtAE? =AD? -(BD? -Really? )
= = = & gtAE? =AD? -BD? +BE?
D is known as the midpoint of BC, so BD=CD.
= = = & gtAE? =AD? -CD? +BE?
= = = & gtAE? =AC? +BE?
= = = & gtAE? -Really? =AC?
