We have triangle
Slope
Slope
Slope
We know, the orthocenter of a triangle is the point of intersection of altitudes passing through the vertices of the triangle.
Here we have altitudes
So, the family of line passing through the vertex ,
is,
As, the orthocentre is origin,
Substituting in , we get ,
So, the equation of altitude is
Slope
As,
So, the product of slopes of and side
And, the family of lines passing through the vertex is,
As, the orthocentre is origin,
Substituting in , we get,
So, the equation of altitude is
As, side .
So, product of their slopes
Solving equations and , we get
.
Hence,
