2. The base of an equilateral triangle with side 2a lies along the y-axis such that the mid-point of the base is at the origin. Find vertices of the triangle.
2. The base of an equilateral triangle with side 2a lies along the y-axis such that the mid-point of the base is at the origin. Find vertices of the triangle.
2. Let ABC be the equilateral triangle of side 2a and 0 be the origin. Then

AB = BC = AC = 2a
O is the mid-point of AB we have AO = a
BO = a
We know that A and B lies on y-axis so they have co-ordinate of the form (0, y).
Hence, co-ordinate of A is (0, a) and that of B is (0, –a)
Since OC, bisects AB at r
