प्रश्न

Find the mid-point of the line segment joining the points

(8, −2) and (−8, 0)

योग

उत्तर


Mid−point of a line = `((x_1 + x_2)/2, (y_1 + y_2)/2)`

Mid−point of AB = `((8 - 8)/2, (-2 + 0)/2)`

= `(0/2, (-2)/2)`

= (0, −1)

If the vertices of a triangle are (1, 3), (2, - 4) and (-3, 1). Then the co-ordinate of its centroid is:


Find the coordinates of point P where P is the midpoint of a line segment AB with A(–4, 2) and B(6, 2).

Solution :

Suppose, (–4, 2) = (x1, y1) and (6, 2) = (x2, y2) and co-ordinates of P are (x, y).

∴ According to the midpoint theorem,

x = `(x_1 + x_2)/2 = (square + 6)/2 = square/2 = square`

y = `(y_1 + y_2)/2 = (2 + square)/2 = 4/2 = square`

∴  Co-ordinates of midpoint P are `square`.
