The vertices of a triangle are A(4;2) ; B(11;6) ; C(-3;-1)
What is the equation of the perpendicular bisector of side a?
(i think -7x+14y=7)
What is the equation of the altitude of side c?
(i think -4x+7y=5)
What is the intersection of the previous lines?
i have no idea about this,please help,and also write down how you solved it
