Anna drew a triangle which has an area of 6 sq.units. The two vertices of the triangle are (3,7) and (5,−4) and the third vertex with coordinate (x1, y1) lies on the line y = x + 4. Which one is the highest among the possible values of x1 + y1 ?
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
C lies on y=x+4
Let v be x
Then=(v,v+4)
Now apply area of triangle formula
6=1/2[X1(y2-y3)+X2(y3-y1)+x3(y1-y2)
After solving
(V-3)11+(v-3)2=12
Then c=(51/13,103/13)
Now X1+y1=51/13+51/13+4=11.8
Given : Anna drew a triangle which has an area of 6 sq. units.
The two vertices of the triangle are (3,7) and (5,−4) and the third vertex with coordinate (x₁, y₁) lies on the line y = x + 4.
To Find : Which one is the highest among the possible values of x₁ + y₁ ?
Solution:
(x₁, y₁) lies on the line y = x + 4
=> y₁ = x₁ + 4
(x₁, x₁ + 4)
x₁ + y₁ = x₁ +x₁ + 4 = 2x₁ + 4
(3,7) , (5,−4) , (x₁, x₁ + 4)
Area of triangle = (1/2) | 3 ( -4 - x₁ - 4) + 5(x₁ + 4 - 7) + x₁(7 - (-4))|
= (1/2) | -24 - 3x₁ + 5x₁ - 15 + 11x₁ |
= (1/2) |13x₁ -39|
(1/2) |13x₁ -39| = 6
=> |13x₁ -39| = 12
=> 13x₁ -39 = ±12
=> x₁ = 51/13 , 27/13
x₁ + y₁ = 2x₁ + 4 = 2(27/13) + 4 = 106/13
or 2 ( 51/13) + 4 = 154/13
highest among the possible values of x₁ + y₁ = 154/13
