Question:
The vertices of a triangle are \( A(0,4,1) \), \( B(2,-3,-1) \), and \( C(4,5,0) \), then the orthocenter of ABC is?
The vertices of a triangle are \( A(0,4,1) \), \( B(2,-3,-1) \), and \( C(4,5,0) \), then the orthocenter of ABC is?
Show Hint
The orthocenter can be found by solving the equations of the altitudes of the triangle.

- \( (4,5,0) \)
- \( (2,-3,-1)
- \( (2,0,-1) \)
- \( (0,0,0) \)
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
The orthocenter is the point where the altitudes of the triangle intersect. Using the coordinates of the triangle vertices and calculating the altitudes, we can find the orthocenter.
