Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(3 x^2-8 x+4=0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Equation of perpendicular bisector of line joining points \(A(-2,-1)\) and \(B(6,-1)\) is \([\because\) mid-point of \(A B\) is \((2,-1)]\) and similarly equation of perpendicular bisector of line joining points \(B(6,-1)\) and \(C(2,5)\) is \([\because\) mid-point of \(B C\) is…
