Solution
So, we have right angled triangle.
Now the orthocenter is the point of intersection of the altitudes. Each leg in a right angle triangled form an altitude. So in a right angled triangle, the orthocenter lies at the vertex containing the right angle.
So, the orthocenter of the triangle with vertices (0,0)(6,0) and 4(0,10)
