Points M, N, O and P divide the time segment joining the (RBSESolutions.com) points A(-5, 0) and B(0, 15) in five equal parts. Find out the co-ordinate of N and O.
Solution :

According to question, a line segment joining the points A (-5, 0) and B(0, 15) divides 5 equal parts. Then point N divides line segment AB in the ratio 2 : 3 and point O divides AB in the ratio 3 : 2.
Let coordinate of N is (x, y)
For point N
x₁ = -5,     y₁ = 0,      m₁ = 2
x₂ = 0,      y₂ = 15,     m₂ = 3
By section formula

Hence, co-ordinate (RBSESolutions.com) of N is (-3, 6)
Again let co-ordinate of O is (x’, y’) then
x₁ = 5, y₁ = 0, m₁ = 3
x₂ = 0, y₂ = 15, m₁ = 2
By section formula

Hence, co-ordinate of point O = (-2, 9)

Question 2.
If the points A(6, 1), B(8, 2), C(9, 4) and D(x, y) are (RBSESolutions.com) vertices of parallelogram respectively, then find the point D(x, y). (Higher secondary board Raj., 2012)
Solution :
Let point A(6, 1), B(8, 2), C(9, 4) and D(x, y) are the vertices of parallelogram.
∴ Diagonals of parallelogram bisects each other.

So,
= co-ordinate of mid point (RBSESolutions.com) diagonal AC

comparing
\(\frac { 8+x }{ 2 }\) = \(\frac { 15 }{ 2 }\) and \(\frac { 2+y }{ 2 }\) = \(\frac { 5 }{ 2 }\)
⇒ 8 + x = 15 and 2 + y = 5
⇒ x = 15 – 8 and y = 5 – 2
⇒ x = 7 and y = 3
Hence, co-ordinate of point D(7, 3)

Question 3.
Find the co-ordinate of the points of trisection of the (RBSESolutions.com) line segment joining the points P(-3, 4) and Q(4, 5). (Higher secondary board Raj., 2014)
Solution :
Let A(x₁ y₁) and B(x₂ Y₂)

Let PA = AB = QB = x
AQ = x + x = 2x
PB = x + x = 2x
\(\frac { PA }{ AQ }\) = \(\frac { x }{ 2x }\) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) = 1 : 2
\(\frac { PB }{ BQ }\) = \(\frac { 2x }{ x }\) = \(\frac { 2 }{ 1 }\) = 2 : 1
Hence, point A, divide PQ in the ratio 1 : 2 and point B, divide PQ in the ratio 2 : 1.
For point A

∴ Co-ordinate of point A \(\left( \frac { -2 }{ 3 } ,\frac { 13 }{ 3 } \right)\)
Co-ordinate of point B

∴ Co-ordinate of point B \(\left( \frac { 5 }{ 3 } ,\frac { 14 }{ 3 } \right)\)
Hence, co-ordinate of point A and B are \(\left( \frac { -2 }{ 3 } ,\frac { 13 }{ 3 } \right)\) and \(\left( \frac { 5 }{ 3 } ,\frac { 14 }{ 3 } \right)\) respectively.

Question 4.
If the co-ordinates of the mid points of the sides of the (RBSESolutions.com) triangle are (3, 4), (8, 9) and (6, 7) respectively. Find the co-ordinate of vertices of triangle. (NCERT Exemplar Problem)
Solution :
Let mid points of sides of triangle are P(3, 4), Q(8, 9) and R(6, 7) respectively.

Let A(x₁, y₁) B(x₂, y₂) and C(x₃, y₃) be the vertices of the
triangle ABC.
Since P (3, 4) is the mid point of A (x₁, y₁) and B(x₂, y₂)
3 = \(\frac { { x }_{ 1 }+{ x }_{ 2 } }{ 2 } \) and 4 = \(\frac { { y }_{ 1 }+{ y }_{ 2 } }{ 2 } \)
x₁ + x₂ = 6 and y₁ + y₂ = 8 …..(i)
since Q(8, 9) is the mid point of B(x₂, y₂) and C(x₃, y₃)
So 8 = \(\frac { { x }_{ 2 }+{ x }_{ 3 } }{ 2 } \) and 9 = \(\frac { { y }_{ 2 }+{ y }_{ 3 } }{ 2 } \)
x₂ + x₃ = 16; y₂ + y₃ = 18 …..(ii)
Since R(6, 7) is the mid (RBSESolutions.com) point of A(x₁, y₁) and C(x₃, y₃). So
6 = \(\frac { { x }_{ 1 }+{ x }_{ 3 } }{ 2 } \) and 7 = \(\frac { { y }_{ 1 }+{ y }_{ 3 } }{ 2 } \)
⇒ x₁ + x₃ = 12 and y₁ + y₃ = 14 …..(iii)
Adding equation (i), (ii) and (iii)
2x₁ + 2x₂ + 2x₃ = 34
and 2y₁ + 2y₂ + 2y₃ = 40
⇒ x₁ + x₂ + x₃ = 17 …..(iv)
and y₁ + y₂ + y₃ = 20
Subtract equation (i) from equation (iv).
x₁ + x₂ + x₃ – x₁ – x₂ = 17 – 6
and y₁ + y₂ + y₃ – y₁ – y₂ = 20 – 8
⇒ x₃ = 11 and y₃ = 12
subtract equation (ii) from equation (iv)
x₁ + x₂ + x₃ – x₂ – x₃ = 17 – 6
and y₁ + y₂ + y₃ – y₂ – y₃ = 20 – 8
⇒ x₁ = 1 and y₁ = 2
subtract equation (iii) (RBSESolutions.com) from equation (iv)
x₁ + x₂ + x₃ – x₁ – x₃ = 17 – 12
and y₁ + y₂ + y₃ – y₁ – y₃ = 20 – 14
⇒ x₂ = 5 and y₂ = 6
Hence, the co-ordinate of vertices of triangle A(1, 2) B(5, 6) and C(11, 12)

Question 5.
Determine the ratio in which the line x – y – 2 = 0 divides the line segment joining (RBSESolutions.com) the points A(3, -1) and B(8, 9) (CBSE 2007)
Solution :
Let the Line x – y – 2 = 0
divides the line segment joining the point A (3, -1) and B (8, 9) at point P (x, y) in the ratio λ : 1.

⇒ 8λ + 3 – 9λ + 1 = 2(λ + 1)
⇒ -λ + 4 = 2λ + 2
⇒ 3λ = 2
⇒ λ = \(\frac { 2 }{ 3 }\)
⇒ λ : 1 = 2 : 3
Hence, required ratio 2 : 3.

Question 6.
Find the ratio in which the line 2x + 3y – 5 = 0 divides the line (RBSESolutions.com) segment which joining the points (8, -9) and (2, 1). Find the coordinate of dividing point. (NCERT Exemplar Problem)

Let given line divides the line segment joining the points A(8, -9) arid B(2, 1) in the ratio λ : 1.

Let co-ordinate of point P

But point P lies on (RBSESolutions.com) the line 3x + 3y – 5 = 0
So, \(2\left( \frac { 2\lambda +8 }{ \lambda +1 } \right) +3\left( \frac { \lambda -9 }{ \lambda +1 } \right) -5=0\)
⇒ 2(2λ + 8) +3(λ – 9) -5(λ + 1) = 0
⇒ 4λ + 16 + 3λ – 27 – 5λ – 5 = 0
⇒ 2λ – 16 = 0
⇒ λ =
⇒ λ : 1 = 8 : 1
Hence required ratio
from equations (i), coordinate of point P.

= \(\left( \frac { 24 }{ 9 } ,\frac { -1 }{ 9 } \right)\)
= \(\left( \frac { 8 }{ 3 } ,\frac { -1 }{ 9 } \right)\)
Hence required ratio = 8 : 1 and co-ordinate of point = \(\left( \frac { 8 }{ 3 } ,\frac { -1 }{ 9 } \right)\)

Question 7.

Solution :
According to question the given point are A(-1, -1), B(-1, 4), C(5, 4) and D(5, -1).

Co-ordinate of mid point P of side AB

Co-ordinate of mid (RBSESolutions.com) point Q of side BC
= \(\left( \frac { 5-1 }{ 2 } ,\frac { 4+4 }{ 2 } \right)\)
= \(\left( \frac { 4 }{ 2 } ,\frac { 8 }{ 2 } \right)\)
= (2, 2)
Co-ordinate of mid point R of side CD
= \(\left( \frac { 5+5 }{ 2 } ,\frac { 4-1 }{ 2 } \right)\)
= \(\left( \frac { 10 }{ 2 } ,\frac { 3 }{ 2 } \right)\)
= \(\left( 5,\frac { 3 }{ 2 } \right)\)
Co-ordinate of mid point S of side DA
= \(\left( \frac { 5-1 }{ 2 } ,\frac { -1-1 }{ 2 } \right)\)
= \(\left( \frac { 4 }{ 2 } ,\frac { -2 }{ 2 } \right)\)
= (2, -1)
Now P \(\left( -1,\frac { 3 }{ 2 } \right)\), Q(2, 4), R \(\left( 5,\frac { 3 }{ 2 } \right)\) and S(2, -1)



In quadrilateral PQRS, PQ = QR = RS = SP
and diagonal PR ≠ diagonal QS
Hence, quadrilateral PQRS is a rhombus.

Question 8.
The line segment joining the points (3, -4) and (1, 2) is (RBSESolutions.com) trisected at the points P and R. It the co-ordinates of P and Q are (p, -2) and \(\left( \frac { 5 }{ 3 } ,q \right)\) respectively. Find the value of p and q. (CBSE 2013)
Solution :
Let the given points be A(3, -4) and B(1, 2) since points P and Q trisected the line segment joining the points AB.

Then AP = PQ = QB = x(let)
PB = PQ + QB = x + x = 2x
and AQ = AP + PQ = x + x = 2x
∴ \(\frac { AP }{ PB }\) = \(\frac { x }{ 2x }\) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\)
⇒ AP : PB = 1 : 2
and \(\frac { AQ }{ QB }\) = \(\frac { 2x }{ x }\) = \(\frac { 2 }{ 1 }\)
⇒ AQ : QB = 2 : 1
Hence point P divide line segment AB in the ratio 1 : 2 and (RBSESolutions.com) point Q divide the live segment AB in the ratio 2 : 1 internally.
So, p = x co-ordinate of point P
= \(\frac { { m }_{ 1 }{ x }_{ 2 }+{ m }_{ 2 }{ x }_{ 1 } }{ { m }_{ 1 }+{ m }_{ 2 } }\)

and q = y-co-ordinate of point Q

So p = \(\frac { 7 }{ 3 }\) and q = 0

Question 9.
The two opposite vertices of a square are (-1, 2) and (3, 2). (RBSESolutions.com) Find the co-ordinate of the other two vertices. (NCERT)
Solution :
Let two opposite vertices of square ABCD are A(-4, 2) and C(3, 2) and co-ordinate of point B is (x, y)

∴ Since each side of square is same in length
AB = BC
⇒ (AB)² = (BC)²
⇒ (x + 1)² + (y – 2)² = (x – 3)² + (y – 2)²
⇒ (x + 1)² = (x – 3)²
⇒ x² + 1 + 2x = x² + 9 – 6x
⇒ 8x = 8
⇒ x = \(\frac { 8 }{ 8 }\) = 1 ….(i)
Now in right (RBSESolutions.com) angled ∆ABC
By Pythagoras theorem
(AB)² + (BC)² = (AC)²
⇒ (x + 1)² + (y – 2)² + (x – 3)² + (y – 2)² = (3 + 1)² + (2 – 2)²
⇒ x² + 1 + 2x + y² + 4 – 4y + x² + 9 – 6x + y² + 4 – 4y = 16
⇒ 2x² + 2y² – 4x – 8y + 2 = 0
⇒ x² + y² – 2x – 4y + 1 = 0 …(ii)
Put the value ofx from equation (i) in equation (ii)
(+1)² + (y)² – 2(1) – 4y + 1 = 0
⇒ y² – 4y = 0
⇒ y(y – 4) = 0
⇒ y = 0 and y – 4 = 0
⇒ y = 0, 4
Hence, other two vertices of square is (1, 0) and (1, 4)

Question 10.
Find the center of a circle passing (RBSESolutions.com) through the points (6, -6), (3, -7) and (3, 3) (NCERT)
Solution :
Let O(x, y) is a center of circle.
The circle of center O is passes through the points P(6, -6), Q(3, -7) and R(3, 3) respectively.
∵ Since radius of circle is same
∴ OP = OQ = OR

or OP² = OQ² = OR²
Now OP² = OQ²
⇒ (x – 6)² + (y + 6)² = (x – 3)² + (y + 7)²
⇒ x² – 12x + 36 + y² + 12y + 36 = x² – 6x + 9 + y² + 14y + 49
⇒ -12x + 6x + 12y – 14y + 72 – 58 = 0
⇒ -6x – 2y + 14 = 0
⇒ 3x + y – 7 = 0 …(i)
Now OQ² = OR²
⇒ (x – 3)² + (y + 7)² = (x – 3)² + (y – 3)²
⇒ (y + 7)² = (y – 3)²
⇒ y² + 49 + 14y = y² +9 – 6y
⇒ 20y = -40
⇒ y = \(\frac { -40 }{ 20 }\) = -2
Put the value ofy in equation (i)
3x – 2 – 7 = 0
⇒ 3x – 9 = 0
⇒ 3x = 9
⇒ x = \(\frac { 9 }{ 3 }\) = 3
Hence, required center is (3, -2).

Question 11.
Prove that diagonals of rectangle (RBSESolutions.com) bisect and equal to each other.
Solution :
Let OABC is a rectangle and O(0, 0), A(a, 0), B(a, b) and C(0, 6).
Let diagonal OB and AC bisects each other at point P.

Co-ordinate of mid point P (RBSESolutions.com) of diagonal OB = \(\left( \frac { 0+a }{ 2 } ,\frac { 0+b }{ 2 } \right)\)
= \(\left( \frac { a }{ 2 } ,\frac { b }{ 2 } \right)\)
Co-ordinate of mid point P of diagonal AC = \(\left( \frac { a+0 }{ 2 } ,\frac { 0+b }{ 2 } \right)\)
= \(\left( \frac { a }{ 2 } ,\frac { b }{ 2 } \right)\)
Clearly diagonal of rectangle bisects each other at point P.

Clearly OB = AC
Hence length of diagonals of rectangle are equal.

Question 12.
In what ratio does the point P(m, 6) divide the line (RBSESolutions.com) segment joining the points A(-4, 3) and B(2, 8)? Find the value of m. (CBSE 2011)
Solution :

Let Point P(m, 6) divides the line segment joining the point A(-4, 3) and B(2, 8) in the ratio λ : 1
By section formula
Coordinate of y of point P

⇒ 6(λ + 1) = 8λ + 3
⇒ 6λ + 6 = 8λ + 3
⇒ 6λ – 8λ = 3 – 6
⇒ -2λ = -3
⇒ λ = \(\frac { -3 }{ -2 }\) = \(\frac { 3 }{ 2 }\)
λ : 1 = 3 : 2
Hence, required ratio = 3 : 2
x co-ordinate of point P
\(m=\frac { 2\lambda -4 }{ \lambda +1 }\)
Put the value of λ from equation (i)

So, m = –\(\frac { 2 }{ 5 }\)

Question 13.
If the points P(x, y), A(3, 6) and B (-3, 4) and collinear, then (RBSESolutions.com) prove that 3x + y – 5 = 0. (CBSE 2012)
Solution :
Let required point P(x, y) which is equidistant from the point A(3, 6) and B(-3, 4)
So, PA = PB
⇒ PA² = PB²
⇒ (x – 3)² + (y – 6)² = [x -(-3)]² + (y – 4)²
⇒ x² + 9 – 6x + y² + 36 – 12y = (x + 3)² + (y – 4)²
⇒ x² + y² – 6x – 12y + 45 = x² + 6x + 9 + y² + 16 – 8y²
⇒ x² + y² – 6x – 12y + 45 = x² + y² + 6x – 8y + 25
⇒ -6x – 12y = 6x – 8y + 25 – 45
⇒ -6x – 12y – 6x + 8y = -20
⇒ -12x – 4y = -20
⇒ 3x + y = 5
⇒ 3x + y – 5 = 0

Question 14.
Find the co-ordinate of point P on the line segment joining the (RBSESolutions.com) points A(-2, -2) and B(2, -4) such that AP = \(\frac { 3 }{ 7 }\)AB and point P is lie on line segment AB (CBSE 2012, 15)
Solution :
Let required point is P(x, y)

Given AP = \(\frac { 3 }{ 7 }\) AB ……(i)
But PB = AB – AP
= AB – \(\frac { 3 }{ 7 }\)AB
= \(\frac { 7AB-3AB }{ 7 }\)
PB = \(\frac { 4 }{ 7 }\) AB ……(ii)
From equation (i) and (ii)
AP : PB = \(\frac { 3 }{ 7 }\)AB : \(\frac { 4 }{ 7 }\)AB
AP : PB = 3 : 4
∴ Hence point P divides point A and B in the (RBSESolutions.com) ratio 3 : 4 respectively.
∴ Hence co-ordinate of point P.

Hence co-ordinate of point P = \(\left( \frac { -2 }{ 7 } ,\frac { -20 }{ 7 } \right)\)

Question 15.
Find the area of rhombus which has (RBSESolutions.com) vertices (3, 0), (4, 5), (-1, 4) and (-2, -1) respectively. (NCERT)
Solution :
Let co-ordinate of vertices of rhombus ABCD are A(3 , 0) B(4, 5), C(-1, 4) and D(-2, -1) respectively.

We know that area of rhombus = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) × first diagonal × second diagonal
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) × 4√2 × 6√2
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) × 24 × 2
= 24 square unit
Hence area of rhombus = 24 square unit.

Question 16.
Find the co-ordinate of equidistant (RBSESolutions.com) point from the points A(-2, -3), B(-1, 0) and C(7, -6) respectively.
Solution :
Let P(x, y) is a required point.
i.e., P(x, y) is equidistant from points A B and C
According to question
PA = PB = PC
Now PA = PB
⇒ PA² = PB²
⇒ (x + 2)² + (y + 3)² = (x + 1)² + (y – 0)²
⇒ x² + 4x + 4 + y² + 9 + 6y = x² + 1 + 2x + y²
⇒ 4x + 6y + 13 = 2x + 1
⇒ 2x + 6y = -12
⇒ x + 3y = -6 …..(i)
and PA = PC
⇒ PA² = PC²
⇒ (x + 2)² +(y + 3)² = (x – 7)² +(y + 6)²
⇒ x² + 4x + 4 +y² + 9 + 6y = x² + 49 – 14x + y² + 36 + 12y
⇒ 4x + 6y + 13 = -14x + 12y + 85
⇒ 18x – 6y = 72
⇒ 9x – 3y = 36 …(ii)
Adding (RBSESolutions.com) equation (i) and (ii)
10x = 30
x = \(\frac { 30 }{ 10 }\) = 3
Put x = 3 in equation (i)
3 + 3y = -6
3y = -6 – 3 = -9
y = \(\frac { -9 }{ 3 }\) = -3
Hence, co-ordinate of required point = (3, -3)
