Question

Find the relation between x and y if the points p(x,y) is equidstant from the points a(1,4) an b(-1,2)

Answer 1

Answer:

x+y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

by distance formula ap=bp

ap=(whole root) (x-1)2 + (y-4)2

bp=(whole root) (x+1)2 + (y-2)2

ap=bp

-2x+16-8y=2x=4-4y

12=4x+4y

HENCE x+y=3
