Find the coordinates of the circumcenter of △pqr with vertices p(−2,5), q(4,1), and r(−2,−3).

(1/3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let O(x,y) be the circumference of the triangle PQR,

Thus, by the property of circumcenter all the vertices of the triangle are at same distance from this circumcenter.

Thus, PO = QO

By the distance formula,

---------(1)

Similarly, QO = RO

  ------------(2)

By adding equation (1) and (2),

24 x = - 8

x = 1/3

By putting this value in equation (1),

We get,

Thus, 4 - 8 y = -12

8 y = 16

y = 2
