प्रश्न
If (a,b) is the mid-point of the line segment joining the points A (10, - 6) , B (k,4) and a - 2b = 18 , find the value of k and the distance AB.
उत्तर
It is given that A(10, −6) and B(k, 4).
Suppose (a, b) be midpoint of AB. Then,
\[a = \frac{10 + k}{2}, b = \frac{- 6 + 4}{2} = \frac{- 2}{2} = - 1\]
\[\text{ Now } , a - 2b = 18\]
\[ \Rightarrow a = 18 - 2 = 16\]
\[\text{ Therefore }, \]
\[16 \times 2 = 10 + k\]
\[ \Rightarrow k = 22\]
\[\text{ Further } , \]
\[AB = \sqrt{\left( 22 - 10 \right)^2 + \left( 4 + 6 \right)^2}\]
\[ = \sqrt{144 + 100}\]
\[ = 2\sqrt{61}\]

(Street Plan): A city has two main roads which cross each other at the centre of the city. These two roads are along the North-South direction and East-West direction.
All the other streets of the city run parallel to these roads and are 200 m apart. There are 5 streets in each direction. Using 1cm = 200 m, draw a model of the city on your notebook. Represent the roads/streets by single lines.
There are many cross- streets in your model. A particular cross-street is made by two streets, one running in the North - South direction and another in the East - West direction. Each cross street is referred to in the following manner : If the 2nd street running in the North - South direction and 5th in the East - West direction meet at some crossing, then we will call this cross-street (2, 5). Using this convention, find:
- how many cross - streets can be referred to as (4, 3).
- how many cross - streets can be referred to as (3, 4).
