Answer:
The coordinates of city Y are (± 4√3 , 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let (x,y) be the co-ordinates of Y.
X(0, 4) Y(x,y) and Z (0, -4)
∴ XY = YZ =ZX (Given)
XY² = YZ² = ZX²
XY² = YZ²
(x -0)² + (y-4)² = (x - 0)² + (y + 4)²
⇒(y-4)² = (y+4)²
y² + 16 - 8y = y² + 8y + 16
16 y = 0
⇒ y = 0
and YZ² = ZX²
(x - 0)² + (y + 4)² = (0-0)² + (4 +4)²
x² + (0 + 4)² = 64
x² = 64 - 16
x = √48
x = ± 4√3
The coordinates of city Y are either (4√3, 0) or (-4√3,0)
