Question diagram: In a triangle P Q R , the co-ordinates of the points P and Q

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Perpendicular bisector of PR is 2x-y+2=0 

Midpoint of PQ is M1,1

Equation of perpendicular bisector of PQ is y=x.

Point of intersection of equations PR and PQ is circumcentre.

So, circumcentre is -2,-2
