A right angled triangle has sides a and b where a<b. If the right angle is bisected then then find the distance between orthocentres of the smaller triangles using coordinate geometry.

Answer 1

This should help a lot. You can construct the vectors u and v for the two orthocenters, and then just get the magnitude of |u-v|
