​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let P(x,0) be a point on X-axis PA = PB PA2 = PB2 (x - 2)2 + (0 + 2)2 = (x + 4)2 + (0 - 2)2 x2 + 4 - 4x + 4 = x2 + 16 + 8x + 4 -4x + 4 = 8x + 16 x = -1 P(-1,0)Read more on Sarthaks.com - https://www.sarthaks.com/971248/find-the-point-on-x-axis-which-is-equidistant-from-the-points-2-2-and-4-2
