Find the coordinates of a point A, where AB is a diameter of the circle whose centre is (2, -3) and B is (1, 4).

Here given that AB is a diameter of the circle whose centre is (say) C(2, -3) and B is (1, 4)


Let A be (x, y)


We know that as C is center, AC = CB or C is midpoint of AB.



By midpoint formula,


x = , y =


For Center C,


2 = and -3 =


x = 4 – 1 and y = -6 – 4


x = 3 and y = -10


Hence, coordinates of A are (3, -10)
