1.
Let points be A(4,5), B(7,6), C(4,3) and D(1,2)
\(AB=\sqrt { \left( 7-4 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( 6-5 \right) ^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 9+1 } =\sqrt { 10 } \)
\(BC=\sqrt { \left( 4-7 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( 3-6 \right) ^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 9+9 } =3\sqrt { 2 } \)
\(CD=\sqrt { \left( 1-4 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( 2-3 \right) ^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 9+1 } =\sqrt { 10 } \)
\(AD=\sqrt { \left( 1-4 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( 2-5 \right) ^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 9+9 } =3\sqrt { 2 } \)
\(AC=\sqrt { \left( 4-4 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( 3-5 \right) ^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 4 } =2\)
\(BD=\sqrt { \left( 1-7 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( 2-6 \right) ^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 36+16 } =\sqrt { 52 } =2\sqrt { 13 } \)
Here, AB=CD=, BC=AD and AC≠BD
∴ The quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram.
2.
Let A ( a,a ), B(-a, -a) and C\(\left( -\sqrt { 3 } a,\sqrt {3 } a \right) \)
Here \(AB=\sqrt { { \left( a+a \right) }^{ 2 }+{ \left( a+a \right) }^{ 2 } } =2\sqrt { 2 } a\)
\(BC=\sqrt { { \left( -a+\sqrt { 3 } a \right) }^{ 2 }+{ \left( -a-\sqrt { 3 } a \right) }^{ 2 } } =2\sqrt { 2 } a\)
\(CA=\sqrt { { \left( a+\sqrt { 3 } a \right) }^{ 2 }+{ \left( a-\sqrt { 3 } a \right) }^{ 2 } } =2\sqrt { 2 } a\)
Since AB = BC = AC, therefore ABC is an equilateral triangle.
3.
Area of △PQR = \(\frac{1}{2}\)[2(2-4)+4(4-1)+5(1-2)]
=\(\frac{1}{2}\)[2x-2+4x3+5x-1]=\(\frac{1}{2}\)[-4+12-5]=\(\frac{3}{2}\)sq.unit.
Area of △PRS =\(\frac{1}{2}\)[2(4-3)+5(3-1)+3(1-4)| = \(\frac{1}{2}\)|2+10-9|=\(\frac{3}{2}\)sq.unit.
∴ Area of quadrilateral = Area of △PQR+ Area of △PRS = \(\frac{3}{2}\)+\(\frac{3}{2}\)=3 sq.units.
4.

Let A(x1,y2), B (x2, y2) and c(x3,y3) be the vertices of a triangle D (10, 5), E (8, 4) and F(6,6) are mid-points of sides BC, CA and AB respectively.
Therefore \(\left( \frac { { x }_{ 1 }+{ x }_{ 2 } }{ 2 } ,\frac { { y }_{ 1 }+{ y }_{ 2 } }{ 2 } \right) =\left( 6,6 \right) \)
\(\Rightarrow { x }_{ 1 }+{ x }_{ 2 }=12\) ...(i)
\({ y }_{ 1 }+y_{ 2 }=12\) ...(ii)
\( \left( \frac { { x }_{ 2 }+{ x }_{ 3 } }{ 2 } ,\frac { { y }_{ 2 }+{ y }_{ 3 } }{ 2 } \right) =\left( 10,5 \right) \)
\({ x }_{ 2 }+x_{ 3 }=20\) ...(iii)
\(\ { y }_{ 2 }+y_{ 3 }=10\) ...(iv)
\(\ \left( \frac { { x }_{ 1 }+{ x }_{ 3 } }{ 2 } ,\frac { { y }_{ 1 }+{ y }_{ 3 } }{ 2 } \right) =\left( 8,4 \right)\)
\(\Rightarrow \ { x }_{ 1 }+x_{ 3 }=16\)
\(\ { y }_{ 1 }+y_{ 3 }=8\) ...(v)
Adding (i), (iii) and (v) we get,
\(2({ x }_{ 1 }+{ x }_{ 2 }+{ x }_{ 3 })=48\) ...(vi)
\(\Rightarrow { x }_{ 1 }+{ x }_{ 2 }+x_{ 3 }=24\)
Adding (ii), (iv) and (vi) we get,
\(2({ y }_{ 1 }+{ y }_{ 2 }+{ y }_{ 3 })=15\) ...(vii)
From (ii), (iv), (vi) and (xi) we get,
\({ y }_{ 1 }=5,\ { y }_{ 2 }=7,\ { y }_{ 3 }=3\) ...(viii)
Coordinates of vertices are A(4,5) B(8,7) and C(12,3).
5.
Since the point P(x,y) is equidistant from the points A(7, 1) and B(3, 5).
Therefore PA = PB ...(i)
Using distance formula
\(PA=\sqrt { \left( x-7 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( y-1 \right) ^{ 2 } } \)
\(=\sqrt { { x }^{ 2 }+{ 7 }^{ 2 }-2.7x+{ y }^{ 2 }+{ 1 }^{ 2 }-2.y.1 } =\sqrt { { x }^{ 2 }+{ y }^{ 2 }+49+1-14x-2y } \)
\(PB=\sqrt { \left( x-3 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( y-5 \right) ^{ 2 } } \) (using distance formula)
\(=\sqrt { { x }^{ 2 }+{ 3 }^{ 2 }-2.3x+{ y }^{ 2 }+{ 5 }^{ 2 }-2.5.y } =\sqrt { { x }^{ 2 }+9-6x+{ y }^{ 2 }+25-10y } \)
Substituting the values of PA and PB in (i). we get
\(\sqrt { { x }^{ 2 }+{ y }^{ 2 }+50-14x-2y } =\sqrt { { x }^{ 2 }+{ y }^{ 2 }-6x-10y+34 } \)
Squaring both sides, We get
\({ x }^{ 2 }+{ y }^{ 2 }+50-14x-2y={ x }^{ 2 }+{ y }^{ 2 }-6x-10y+34\)
⇒ 50-34=14x+2y-6x-10y ⇒16=8x-8y ⇒x-y=2
6.
\(\left(\frac{-1}{5}, \frac{-2}{5}\right)\)
7.
Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
Mid-points of AC and BD are same
\(\Rightarrow \quad \left( 3,\frac { -1+y }{ 2 } \right) =\left( 3,2 \right) \)
\(\frac { -1+y }{ 2 } =2\quad \Rightarrow \quad y=5\)
8.
Using section formula, we get,
\(0=\frac { 1\left( -3 \right) +k\left( 7 \right) }{ 1+k } \)
Let the ratio be k : 1,
\(\Rightarrow \ k=\frac{3}{7}\)
\(\Rightarrow\) Ratio = 3 : 7
Also, \(x=\frac { { m }_{ 2 }{ x }_{ 1 }+{ m }_{ 1 }{ x }_{ 2 } }{ { m }_{ 1 }+{ m }_{ 2 } } \)
\(=\frac { 1\left( 3 \right) +k\left( -2 \right) }{ 1+k } \)
\(x=\frac { 3-2\times \frac { 3 }{ 7 } }{ 1+\frac { 3 }{ 7 } } =\frac { 3 }{ 2 } \)
\(\therefore\) Co-ordinates of point are \(\left( \frac { 3 }{ 2 } ,0 \right) \)
