If an triangle ABC,A(1,10),circumcentre (1/3,  2/3), and orthocentre (11/3,  4/3), then the coordinates of the midpoint of the side opposite to A are 

a
(1) (1,−11/3)
b
(2) (1,5)
c
(3) (1,−3)
d
(4) (1,6)

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Circumcentre O≡(−1/3,2/3) and orthocenter H≡(11/3,4/3) Therefore, the coordinates of G are (1,8/9). Now, the point A is (1,10) as G is (1/ 8/9).Also, AD : DG =3:1∴    D≡(3−13−1,8/3−103−1)≡(1,11/3)∴    D=(3−12)=1, Dy=(8/3)−102=−113Hence, the coordinates of t'he midpoint of BC are (1,-11 /3).
