Detailed Solution

Let the equation of side AB  3x2y+6=0  

                                                                                                          …(i)

and, the equation of side AC is 4x + 5y - 20 = 0

                                                                                                          …(ii)

Solving (i) and (ii), we get vertex  A1023,8423.

Now, slope of AC=4/5

 Slope of perpendicular BE=5/4

Also, BE passes through orthocentre H(l, 1)

 Equation of BE is

(y1)=54(x1)

 4y5x+1=0                                                      …(iii)

Solving (i) and (iii), we get vertex B13,332.

Now, slope of AB=3/2

 Slope of perpendicular CF=2/3

Equation of CF is (y1)=23(x1)

3y+2x5=0                                                          ….(iv)                             

Solving (ii) and (iv), we get vertex C352,10

Equation of side BC is  (y+10)=10+332352+13x352

 (y+10)=1361x35226x122y=1675
