प्रश्न

The vertices of a triangle are A(3, 4), B(2, 0), and C(−1, 6). Find the equation of the line containing side BC.

योग

उत्तर

Vertices of ΔABC are A(3, 4), B(2, 0) and C(−1, 6).

Equation of the line in two point form is

`(y - y_1)/(y_2 - y_1) = (x - x_1)/(x_2 - x_1)`

∴ The equation of the side BC is

`(y - 0)/(6 - 0) = (x - 2)/(-1 - 2)`

∴ `y/6 = (x - 2)/(-3)`

∴ −3y = 6x − 12

∴ 6x + 3y − 12 = 0    ...(∵ both side divide by 3)

∴ 2x + y − 4 = 0
