Detailed Solution

Equation of altitude from the point A at1t2,at1+t2 is  yat1+t2=t3xat1t2
Re write this equation as 
    t3x+y=at1+t2+at1t2t3   …… (1) 
Equation of altitude from the point Bat2t3,at2+t3 is 
    t1x+y=at2+t3+at1t2t3   …… (2) 
The ortho center is the point of intersection of the above two lines 
Hence, subtract equation (1) from (2) 
 xt3t1=at1t3x=a
Substitute x=-a  in the equation t3x+y=at1+t2+at1t2t3
t3(a)+y=at1+t2+at1t2t3y=at1+t2+t3+at1t2t3=0

Therefore, the ortho center is a,0  it lies on x- axis.
