The area of triangle formed by the points (−5, 0), (0, −5) and (5, 0) is
0 sq. units
25 sq. units
5 sq. units
none of these
1.
Given area of triangle is 5
Vertices of triangle are (2, 1), (3, - 2) and (x, y)
Area of triangle = \(\frac{1}{2}\left[x_{1}\left(y_{2}-y_{3}\right)+x_{2}\left(y_{3}-y_{1}\right)+x_{3}\left(y_{1}-y_{2}\right)\right]=5\)
2(-2 - y) + 3(y - 1) + x(1 + 2) = 10
-4 - 2y + 3y - 3 + 3x = 10
3x + y = 17
Given that Y = x + 3, Substituting in (1)
3x + x + 3 = 17
4x = 4
x = 7/2
and y = 7/2 + 3
= 13/2
Third vertex is (7/2, 13/2)
2.
3.
Before determining the area of quadrilateral, plot the vertices in a graph.
Let the vertices be A(8, 6), B(5, 11), C(-5, 12) and D(-4, 3).
Therefore, area of the quadrilateral ABCD
=\(\frac{1}{2}\) { (x1y2 + x2y3 + x3y1) - (x2y1 + x3y2 + x1y3) }
=\(\frac{1}{2}\) { (80 + 60 - 15 - 24) - (30 - 55 - 48 + 24)}
=\(\frac{1}{2}\) {109 + 49 }
=\(\frac{1}{2}\) { 158 } = 79 sq. units
4.
The vertices are A(-1, 2), B(k, -2) and C(7, 4)
Area of triangle ABC is 22 sq. units
\(\frac{1}{2}\) { (x1y2 + x2y3 + x3y1) - (x2y1 + x3y2 + x1y3) } = 22
\(\frac{1}{2}\) { (2 + 4k + 14) - (2k - 14 - 4) } = 22
2k + 34 = 44 gives 2k = 10 so k = 5.
5.
Plot the points in a rough diagram and take them in counter-clockwise order.
Let the vertices be
The area of Δ ABC is
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) { (x1y2 + x2y3 + x3y1) - (x2y1 + x3y2 + x1y3) }
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) { (6 + 30 + 25) - (25 - 10 18) }
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) { 61 + 3 }
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) (64) = 32 sq. units
6.
Given, θ = 450, y intercept, c = 11
Slope m = tan θ = tan 450 = 1
Therefore, equation of a straight line is of the form y = mx + c
Hence we get, y = x + 11 gives x − y + 11 = 0
7.
The equation \(y=\frac { 4 }{ 3 } x-7\) can be written as 4x - 3y -21 = 0
Equation of a straight line perpendicular to 4x - 3y - 21 = 0 is 3x + 4y + k = 0
Since it is passes through the point (7, – 1),
21 - 4 + k = 0 we get, k = -17
Therefore, equation of the required straight line is 3x + 4y - 11 = 0
8.
Given 6x + 8y + 7 = 0
slope m \(=\frac { -coefficient\quad of\quad x }{ coefficient\quad of\quad y } =\frac { 6 }{ 8 } =-\frac { 3 }{ 4 } \)
Therefore, the slope of the straight line is = - \(\frac { 3 }{ 4 } \)
9.
Let the x intercept be ‘a’ and y intercept be ‘– a’.
The equation of the line in intercept form is \(\frac { x }{ a } +\frac { y }{ b } =1\)
gives \(\frac { x }{ a } +\frac { y }{ -a } =1\) (Here b = – a)
Therefore, x − y = a ...(1)
Since (1) passes through (5, 7)
Therefore, 5 - 7 = a gives a = − 2
Thus the required equation of the straight line is x − y = − 2 ; or x − y + 2 = 0
10.
Equation of the given straight line is 8x − 7y + 6 = 0
7y = 8x + 6 (bring it to the form y = mx + c)
\(y=\frac { 8 }{ 7 } x+\frac { 6 }{ 7 } \).... (1)
Comparing (1) with y = mx + c
Slope m = \(\frac { 8 }{ 7 } \) and y intercept c = \(\frac { 6 }{ 7 } \)
11.
The slope of line p is m1 = \(\frac { 4+2 }{ 12-3 } =\frac { 6 }{ 9 } =\frac { 2 }{ 3 } \)
The slope of line p is m2 = \(\frac { 2+2 }{ 12-6 } =\frac { 4 }{ 6 } =\frac { 2 }{ 3 } \)
Thus, slope of line p = slope of line q.
Therefore, the line p is parallel to the line q.
12.
Given points are (2, 3), (4, a) and (6, - 3)
Since the points are colinear, Area of triangle is zero
\(\text { i.e., } \frac{1}{2}\left[x_{1}\left(y_{2}-y_{3}\right)+x_{2}\left(y_{3}-y_{1}\right)+x_{3}\left(y_{1}-y_{2}\right)\right]=0\)
2(a + 3) + 4(- 3 -3) + 6(3 - a) = 0
2a + 6 - 24 + 18 - 6a = 0
-4a + 0 = 0
-4a = 0
a = 0
13.
(b)
x + y = 3; 3x + y = 7
14.
(a)
The slope is 0.5 and the y intercept is 2.6
15.
(a)
8x + 5y = 40
16.
(d)
