Question

The locus of point whose distances to coordinate axes are in the ratio 3:4 is

Answer 1

Answer:

Let a point on the locus be P(a,b).

=> distance of P from x-axis = b

and, distance of P from y-axis = a

now, according to the question,

b:a = 3:4

=> b/a = 3/4

=> 4b = 3a

now putting (x,y) for (a,b)....

we get the eqn. as...

4y - 3x = 0 ........... ans ..
