प्रश्न
Show that the point (0, 9) is equidistant from the points (– 4, 1) and (4, 1)
उत्तर
Let P(x1, y1) = P(0, 9), Q(x2, y2) = Q(– 4, 1), R(x3, y3) = R(4, 1)
By distance formula,
d(P, Q) = `sqrt((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2`
= `sqrt([(-4) - 0]^2 + (1 - 9)^2`
= `sqrt((-4)^2 + (-8)^2`
= `sqrt(16 + 64)`
= `sqrt(80)`
= `4sqrt(5)`
And
d(P, R) = `sqrt((x_3 - x_1)^2 + (y_3 - y_1)^2`
= `sqrt((4 - 0)^2 + (1 - 9)^2`
= `sqrt(4^2 + (-8)^2`
= `sqrt(16 + 64)`
= `sqrt(80)`
= `4sqrt(5)`
Here, d(P, Q) = d(P, R)
∴ The point (0, 9) is equidistant from (– 4, 1) and (4, 1).

Alia and Shagun are friends living on the same street in Patel Nagar. Shagun's house is at the intersection of one street with another street on which there is a library. They both study in the same school and that is not far from Shagun's house. Suppose the school is situated at the point O, i.e., the origin, Alia's house is at A. Shagun's house is at B and library is at C. |
Based on the above information, answer the following questions.
