1.
Distance between the points (1, 2) and (4, 3)
= \(\sqrt { ({ x }_{ 2 }-{ x }_{ 1 })^{ 2 }+(y_{ 2 }-{ y }_{ 1 })^{ 2 } } \)
= \(\sqrt { (4-1)^{ 2 }+(3-2)^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { { 3 }^{ 2 }+{ 1 }^{ 2 } } \)
= \(\sqrt { 9+1 } =\sqrt { 10 } \) = units
2.
(i) P (-7, 6) lies in the II quadrant because the x-coordinate is negative and y-coordinate is positive
(ii) Q (7, -2) lies in the IV quadrant because the x-coordinate is positive and y-coordinate is negative
(iii) R (-6, -7) lies in the III quadrant because the x-coordinate is negative and y-coordinate is negative
(iv) S (3, 5) lies in the I quadrant because the x-coordinate is positive and y-coordinate is also positive
(v) T (3, 9) lies in the I quadrant because the x-coordinate is positive and y-coordinate is also positive
3.
The x-coordinate is positive and y – coordinate is positive. So Point (2,5) lies in the I quadrant
4.
The x- coordinate is positive and y – coordinate is negative. So, Point(3,–8) lies in the IV quadrant.
5.
Distance =\(\sqrt { ({ x }_{ 2 }-{ x }_{ 1 })^{ 2 }+(y_{ 2 }-y_{ 1 })^{ 2 } } \)
AB =\(\sqrt { (-6+3)^{ 2 }+(-7-1)^{ 2 } } \)
= \(\sqrt { (-3)^{ 2 }+(-8)^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 9+64 } =\sqrt { 73 } \)
BC = \(\sqrt { (3+6)^{ 2 }+(-9+7)^{ 2 } } \)
= \(\sqrt { { 9 }^{ 2 }+(-2)^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 81+4 } =\sqrt { 85 } \)
CD = \(\sqrt { (6-3)^{ 2 }+(-1+9)^{ 2 } } \)
= \(\sqrt { (3)^{ 2 }+({ 8 })^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 9+64 } =\sqrt { 73 } \)
AD = \(\sqrt { (6+3)^{ 2 }+(-1-1)^{ 2 } } \)
= \(\sqrt { (9)^{ 2 }+(-2)^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 81+4 } =\sqrt { 85 } \)
AB = CD =\(\sqrt { 73 } \) and BC = AD = \(\sqrt { 85 } \)(Opposite sides sre equal)
∴ ABCD is a parallelogram.
6.
Distance AB = \(\sqrt { (a-a)^{ 2 }+(3+2)^{ 2 } } \)
= \(\sqrt { 0+{ 5 }^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 25 } =5\)
BC = \(\sqrt { (a-a)^{ 2 }+(0-3)^{ 2 } } \)
= \(\sqrt { 0+9 } =\sqrt { 9 } =3\)
AC = \(\sqrt { (a-a)^{ 2 }+(0+2)^{ 2 } } \)
= \(\sqrt { 0+2^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 4 } =2\)
AC + BC = AB ⇒ 2 + 3 = 5
∴ The given three points are collinear
7.
Given points are A(2, 3) and B(2, -4)
The point P lines on the x-axis.
∴ The point P is (x, 0)
AP = \(\frac { 3 }{ 7 } \) AB
\(\frac { AP }{ AB } \) = \(\frac { 3 }{ 7 } \)
\(\frac { AP }{ PB } \) = \(\frac { 3 }{ 7 } \) ........(1)
Distance =\(\sqrt { ({ x }_{ 2 }-{ x }_{ 1 })^{ 2 }+(y_{ 2 }-y_{ 1 })^{ 2 } } \)
AP = \(\sqrt { (x-2)^{ 2 }+(0-3)^{ 2 } } \)
= \(\sqrt { { x }^{ 2 }-4x+4+9 } \)
= \(\sqrt { { x }^{ 2 }-4x+13 } \)
BP =\(\sqrt { (x-2)^{ 2 }+(0+4)^{ 2 } } \)
= \(\sqrt { x^{ 2 }-4x+4+16 } \)
= \(\sqrt { x^{ 2 }-4x+20 } \)
From (1) we get
\(\frac { AP }{ PB } \) = \(\frac { 3 }{4 } \)
\(\frac { \sqrt { { x }^{ 2 }-4x+13 } }{ \sqrt { { x }^{ 2 }-4x+20 } } =\frac { 3 }{ 4 } \) (Squaring on both sides)
\(\frac { { x }^{ 2 }-4x+13 }{ { x }^{ 2 }-4x+20 } =\frac { 9 }{ 16 } \)
16x2- 64x + 208 = 9x2 - 36x + 180
7x2 - 28x + 28 = 0
x2- 4x + 4 = 0
(x-2)2= 0
x-2 =0
x = 2
∴ The point P is (2, 0)
8.
Since B is on the x-axis, the y-coordinate of B is 0.
So, the coordinates of the point B is (11, 0)
By the distance formula the distance between the points A (7, 3), B (11, 0) is
\(d=\sqrt { \left( { x }_{ 2 }-{ x }_{ 1 } \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( y_{ 2 }-y_{ 1 } \right) ^{ 2 } } \)
\(AB=\sqrt { \left( 11-7 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( 0-3 \right) ^{ 2 } } \)
\(=\sqrt { \left( 4 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( -3 \right) ^{ 2 } } =\ \sqrt { 16+9 } =\sqrt { 25 } =5\)
9.
The distance between the points (-4, 3), (2, -3) is
\(d=\sqrt { \left( { x }_{ 2 }-{ x }_{ 1 } \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( y_{ 2 }-y_{ 1 } \right) ^{ 2 } } \)
\(=\sqrt { \left( 2+4 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( -3-3 \right) ^{ 2 } } \)
\(=\sqrt { \left( { 6 }^{ 2 }+\left( -6 \right) ^{ 2 } \right) } =\sqrt { \left( 36+36 \right) } \)
\(=\sqrt { 36\times 2 } \)
\(=6\sqrt { 2 } \)

10.
(-1,1), (1, 3) and (3, a)
Distance =\(\sqrt { ({ x }_{ 2 }-{ x }_{ 1 })^{ 2 }+({ y }_{ 2 }-y_{ 1 })^{ 2 } } \)
AB =\(\sqrt { (1+1)^{ 2 }+(3-1)^{ 2 } } \)
= \(\sqrt { (2)^{ 2 }+(2)^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 4+4 } =\sqrt { 8 } \)
BC =\(\sqrt { (3-1)^{ 2 }+(a-3)^{ 2 } } \)
= \(\sqrt { (2)^{ 2 }+(a-3)^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 4+(a-3)^{ 2 } } \)
But given AB = BC ⇒\(\sqrt { 8 } =\sqrt { 4+(a-3)^{ 2 } } \)
a-3 = 2 (or) a - 3 = -2
a = 2+3 (or) a = 3-2
a = 5 (or) a = 1
∴ 4+(a - 3)2 = 8
(a - 3)2 = 8 - 4
(a - 3)2 = 4
a - 3 = \(\sqrt { 4 } =\pm 2\)
∴ The value of a = 5 or a = 1
11.
The two given points are (5,-2), (1, a) and d = 5.
By distance formula
\(d=\sqrt { \left( { x }_{ 2 }-{ x }_{ 1 } \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( y_{ 2 }-y_{ 1 } \right) ^{ 2 } } \)
\(=\sqrt { \left( 1-5 \right) ^{ 2 }+\left( a+2 \right) ^{ 2 } } =5\)
\(=\sqrt { 16+\left( a+2 \right) ^{ 2 } } =5\)
16 + (a+2)2 = 25 (By squaring on both the sides)
(a+2)2 = 25–16
(a+2)2 = 9
(a+2) = \(\pm \) 3 (By taking the square root on both side)
a = –2 \(\pm \) 3
a = –2 + 3 (or) a = –2 –3
a = 1 or –5.
