MCQ

उत्तर

5

Explanation;

Hint:

Since ABCD is a parallelogram

Mid-point of AC = Mid-point of BD

`((1 + x)/2, (-2 + 10)/2) = ((3 + 3)/2, (6 + 2)/2)`

`(1 + x)/2 = 6/2`

⇒ 1 + x = 6

⇒ x = 6 – 1 = 5

The value of x = 5

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`.
