Step-by-Step Verified Solution
- Solve the equations and
Multiply the first equation by 5 and the second by 1 and then subtract the second from the first:
Subtracting these gives which leads to
Substitute into the first equation to get
So, the first vertex is .
- Solve the equations and
Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second by 1 and then add:
Adding these gives which leads to
Substitute into the second equation to get
So, the second vertex is .
- Solve the equations and
Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second by 5 and then add:
Adding these gives which leads to
Substitute into the first equation to get
So, the third vertex is .
So, the vertices of the triangle are , , and .
Now that we have the vertices of the triangle, we can find the centroid. The centroid of a triangle with vertices , , and is given by :
,
Substituting the coordinates of the vertices into these equations, we get:
,
Then, we find and :
So, and are the roots of the quadratic equation.
We can write the quadratic equation as
Substituting , gives us:
