प्रश्न
The line segment joining the points A(2, 1) and B (5, - 8) is trisected at the points P and Q such that P is nearer to A. If P also lies on the line given by 2x - y + k= 0 find the value of k.
उत्तर
As a line segment, AB is trisected by the points P and Q, Therefore.
Case l: When AP: PB = 1: 2.
Then, coordinates of P are
`{{1xx5 +2xx2)/(1+2) , (1xx(-8)+1xx2)/(1+2)}`
Implies that
P(3, -2)
Since the point P{3, - 2) lies on the line
2x - y + k = 0
⇒ 2 × 3 -(-2) + k = 0
⇒ k = -8

A tiling or tessellation of a flat surface is the covering of a plane using one or more geometric shapes, called tiles, with no overlaps and no gaps. Historically, tessellations were used in ancient Rome and in Islamic art. You may find tessellation patterns on floors, walls, paintings etc. Shown below is a tiled floor in the archaeological Museum of Seville, made using squares, triangles and hexagons.
A craftsman thought of making a floor pattern after being inspired by the above design. To ensure accuracy in his work, he made the pattern on the Cartesian plane. He used regular octagons, squares and triangles for his floor tessellation pattern
