Detailed Solution
Let the third vertex be (h, k).Now, the slope of AD is (k - 2)/(h - 1), the slope of BC is (5 + 3)l(-2 - 4)=4/3, the slope of BE is (-3 -2)/(4 - 1) = 5/3, and the slope of AC is (k - 5)/(h + 2).Since AD⊥BC,we have k−2h−1×−43=−1or 3h-4k+5=0 (i)Again, since BE⊥AC, we have−53×k−5h+2=−1or 3h - 5k +31 = 0 (ii)On solving (i) and (ii), we get h=33, k=26.Hence, the third vertex is (33, 26).
