Answer:
x+ y - 4 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Given---> Given point is equidistant from points
(1 , 1 ) and ( 3 , 3 )
To find ---> Locus of given point
Solution---> Let coordinates of P, A , B be ( x , y ) ,
( 1 , 1 ) and ( 3 , 3 )
Now , ATQ, point P is equidistance from A and B.
So, PA = PB
√{(x - 1)² + (y - 1)²} = √{(x-3)²+ (y-3)²}
Squaring both sides we get,
=> ( x-1 )² + ( y - 1 )² = ( x - 3 )² + ( y - 3 )²
We have a formula ,
( a - b )² = a² + b² - 2ab , applying it here , we get,
=> x²+1 - 2x + y² + 1 - 2y = x² + 9 - 6x + y² + 9 - 6y
=> -2x - 2y + 2 = -6x - 6y + 18
=> 6x - 2x + 6y - 2y + 2 - 18 = 0
=> 4x + 4y - 16 = 0
=> x + y - 4 = 0
Locus of given point is
x + y - 4 = 0
