1) find eqn of median (i.e. line through A and mid. of B and C)
let the image be P(a,b)
therefore, mid. of (1,2) and P(a,b) lies on median ... 1
and slope of line joining (1,2) and P(a,b) is perp. to median ....2
solving the two eqns. find a and b .
2) the points form a right angled triangle (right angled at origin)
hence the diameter of the reqd. circle is the line segment joining (4,3) and (-3,4)
now find its eqn.
3) let the given points be A,B,C,D
then find direction ratios of AB,BC,CD,DA
the points will come out to be collinear
