𝐴(1,−2) is a point on the circle (𝑥−3)2+ (𝑦+1)2= 5
a. State the coordinates of the centre of the circle and hence find the coordinates of the point 𝐵 where 𝐴𝐵 is the diameter of the circle.
b. 𝐶(2,1) also lies on the circle. Use coordinate geometry to verify that angle 𝐴𝐶𝐵 = 900
in the triangle ABC having vertices at A(-2,5), B(6,1) and C(-2,-3), find the length of the median from vertex B to side AC.
a. The points 𝐴,𝐵 and 𝐶 have co-ordinates (−1,2),(1,1) and (2,3) respectively. Sketch the triangle 𝐴𝐵𝐶 .By calculating the lengths of the sides of this triangle, determine if it is scalene, isosceles, or equilateral.
b. Find the distance 𝑀𝐵, where 𝑀 is the midpoint of 𝐴𝐶, and hence find the area of the triangle 𝐴𝐵𝐶.
