Find the point on x-axis which is equidistant from points A(-1,0) and B(5,0)
उत्तर
Let P (x ,0) be the point on . x- axis Then
AP = BP ⇒ AP2 = BP2
`⇒ (x+1)^2 + (0-0)^2 = (x-5)^2 +(0-0)^2`
`⇒ x^2 +2x+1=x^2-10x +25`
`⇒ 12x = 24 ⇒ x = 2`
Hence , x = 2

If the points P(1, 2), Q(0, 0) and R(x, y) are collinear, then find the relation between x and y.
Given points are P(1, 2), Q(0, 0) and R(x, y).
The given points are collinear, so the area of the triangle formed by them is `square`.
∴ `1/2 |x_1(y_2 - y_3) + x_2(y_3 - y_1) + x_3(y_1 - y_2)| = square`
`1/2 |1(square) + 0(square) + x(square)| = square`
`square + square + square` = 0
`square + square` = 0
`square = square`
Hence, the relation between x and y is `square`.
