Find the midpoints.
Midpoint of AB : (2,10)
Midpoint of BC :


Midpoint of AC :


.
.
.

From the diagram, it looks like the orthocenter will be (0,7).
We definitely know that from the midpoint of BC to the midpoint of AC, the equation of the line is .
The line from C to the midpoint of AB is,




Since we already know



(0,7)
