Let the vertices of ABC be A(3, 1), B(x1, y1) and C(x2, y2).
Let the equation of the median through vertex B be 6x + 10y 59=0

and the bisector of C be x 3y + 10 = 0

Since, C(x2, y2) lies on x 4y + 10 = 0 and Ex2+32,y212  lies on 6x + 10y  59 = 0

x24y2+10=0 and 3x2+9+5y2559=0

x24y2+10=0 and 3x2+5y255=0

x2=10,y2=5

So, the coordinates of C are (10, 5).
The equation of AC is y+1=5+1103(x3) or, 6x  7y = 25

Let the slope of BC be m. Then, its equation is   y 5 = m(x10) ... (i)

Since BC and AC are equally inclined to x  4y + 10 = 0 i.e., the angle bisector. Therefore,14m14+m=67141+67×1414m4+m=173429

Substituting the value of m in (i), we obtain that the equation of BC is 2x + 9y = 65.
Since B(x1, y1) lies on BC and the median through B i.e., 6x + 10y 59 = 0. Therefore,
2x1 + 9y1 = 65 and 6 x1+10 y159=0

x1=72,y1=8

So, the coordinates of B are 72,8 and so the equation of A is

y+1=8+1723(x3), or 18x+13y=41
