If the axes are translated to the orthocentre of the triangle formed by the points \(\mathrm{A}(7,5), \mathrm{B}(-5,-7), \mathrm{C}(7,-7)\), then the coordinates of the incentre of the triangle in the new system are

  1. A \((-6,6)\)
  2. B \(\left(-\frac{5}{\sqrt{2}}, \frac{7}{\sqrt{2}}\right)\)
  3. C \(\left(\frac{-12}{2+\sqrt{2}}, \frac{12}{2+\sqrt{2}}\right)\)
  4. D \((-5 \sqrt{2},-7 \sqrt{2})\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\left(\frac{-12}{2+\sqrt{2}}, \frac{12}{2+\sqrt{2}}\right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Vertices: \( \mathrm{A}(7,5), \mathrm{B}(-5,-7), \mathrm{C}(7,-7) \) Line AC is \( x=7 \) (vertical); Line BC is \( y=-7 \) (horizontal). Triangle ABC is right-angled at C. Orthocentre \( \mathrm{H} = \mathrm{C} = (7,-7) \) Side lengths:…
