MCQ
$ABC$ is a variable triangle such that $A$ is $(1, 2)$ , $B$ and $C$ lie on line $y = x + \lambda $(where $\lambda $ is a variable), then locus of the orthocenter of triangle $ABC$ is
  • A
    $(x -1)^2 + y^2 = 4$
  • $x + y = 3$
  • C
    $2x -y = 0$
  • D
    none of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
$x + y = 3$
b
As altitude from $A$ is fixed and orthocentre lies on altitude hence $x + y = 3$ is required locus.
