प्रश्न
Find the coordinates of the point Q on the x-axis which lies on the perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining the points A(–5, –2) and B(4, –2). Name the type of triangle formed by the points Q, A and B.
उत्तर
Point Q is the midpoint of AB as the point P lies on the perpendicular bisector of AB.
By midpoint formula:
`(x_1 + x_2)/2 = (-5 + 4)/2`
= `-1/2`
x = `-1/2`
Given that,
P lies on x-axis,
So y = 0
P(x, y) = `(-1/2, 0)`
Therefore, it is an isosceles triangle
