A triangle $ABC$ with vertices $A(-1,0), B(-2,3/4),C(-3,-7/6)$ has orthocentre H. Find the orthocentre of triangle $BCH$

I know how to solve this question but my procedure is too long.

My Approach:
Find the slope of 2 sides and hence the slope of their perpendicular. Find the equation of the lines from the slope and the fact that orthocentre passes through the opposite vertex. Then find the intersection of the 2 sides. Thus we obtain H. Repeat procedure for the second triangle to obtain the orthocentre.

Since I'm preparing for competitive examinations I need a faster method to solve this question. It would be great if someone could help.
