Step-by-step explanation:
Given that - The line joining the points A(x
1
,y
1
)=(3,14); B(x
2
,y
2
)=(a,5) is 9 units long.
We apply the distance formula,
AB=d=
(x
2
−x
1
)
2
+(y
2
−y
1
)
2
⟹9=
(a−3)
2
+(5−14)
2
units
on squaring both sides we get
81=(a−3)
2
+(5−14)
2
81=a
2
+9−6a+25+196−140
0=a
2
−6a+9...(solve this quadratic equation and we get)
⟹a=3 units.
