Find a relation between x and y such that the point (x,y) is equidistant from
(5,1) and (-1,5).
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
Given :
- Points are A(5 , 1) and B(-1 , 5).
To Find :
- A relation between x and y.
Solution :
Let, P(x, y) be equidistant from the points
A(5, 1) and B(-1, 5).
.°. AP = PB
=> √(x - 5)² + (y - 1)² = √(x + 1)² + (y - 5)²
[ Squaring on both sides, we get ]
=> (x - 5)² + (y - 1)² = (x + 1)² + (y - 5)²
=> x² - 10x + 25 + y² - 2y + 1 = x² + 2x + 1 + y² - 10y + 25
=> -10x - 2y + 26 = 2x - 10y + 26
=> -10x - 2y = 2x - 10y
=> -10x - 2x - 2y + 10y = 0
=> -12x + 8y = 0
=> 12x - 8y = 0
=> 3x - 2y = 0
Hence :
A relation between x and y is 3x - 2y = 0.
Points that are given = (5, 1) and (-1, 5).
Find a relation between x and y.
Let points(x, y) equidistant from (5, -1) and (-1, 5).
➔ √(x - 5)² + (y - 1)² = √(x + 1)² + (y - 5)²
After squaring on both the sides :
➔ (x - 5)² + (y - 1)² = (x + 1)² + (y - 5)²
➔ x² - 10x + 25 + y² - 2y + 1 = x² + 2x + 1 + y² - 10y + 25
➔ -10x - 2y + 26 = 2x - 10y + 26
➔ -10x - 2y = 2x - 10y
➔ -10x - 2x - 2y + 10y = 0
➔ -12x + 8y = 0
➔ 12x - 8y = 0
➔ 3x - 2y = 0
