GEOMETRY HELP? FAN N MEDAL

OpenStudy (here_to_help15):

Help math please

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

|dw:1418085581539:dw| here m ,n and o are midpoints and p is circumcentre

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

so first u have to find the equation of line 'mn'

OpenStudy (here_to_help15):

Ok yes

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

then |dw:1418085994016:dw|

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

then u have to find point p such that op is perpendicular bisector to bc at point o

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

so the slope of 'op' will be negative inverse of slope of line 'mn'

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

can u find it now

OpenStudy (here_to_help15):

Well i am still a lil confused on finding the exact answer

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

wait i put up the wrong concept

OpenStudy (here_to_help15):

oh ok that must be why

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

|dw:1418086729048:dw|

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

'o' is the point of intersection of perpendicular bisectors of any two sides

OpenStudy (here_to_help15):

ok so the next step would be

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

lol wait

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

ok so let point o be (x,y) and m is the midpoint u have to find the the equation of line om by usinng the slope of line ab slope of line ab will be negative inverse of line om similarly u have to find the equation of line on and u have to solve the equation of both lines for c-ordinates of point o

OpenStudy (here_to_help15):

Sorry i had to go so i am not sure if this correct but is the first one correct?

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

no

OpenStudy (here_to_help15):

Oh :/

OpenStudy (here_to_help15):

my 2nd answer was D

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

no

OpenStudy (here_to_help15):

Lemme guess that is wrong too huh :/

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

actually its very easy

OpenStudy (here_to_help15):

My sis told me it was B lol but i dont trust her

OpenStudy (here_to_help15):

I am not so well with geo so sorry if i dont catch on quick :/

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

did u get my concept

OpenStudy (here_to_help15):

Yes sorta

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

do u have to find it algeabraicaly or graphically
