15.
The hypotenuse of a right angled triangle has its ends at the points (1, 3) and (– 4, 1). Find an equation of the legs (perpendicular sides) of the triangle which are parallel to the axes.
1.
Let A(l, 4) and B(3, 8) be any two points. Equation of the line joining A(l, 4) and B(3, 8) is
\(y-4=(\frac{8-4}{3-1})(x-1)\)
\(\Rightarrow\) y - 4 = 2(x - 1) \(\Rightarrow\) 2x - y + 2 = 0
Length of perpendicular from point (2, -5) to line 2x - y + 2 = 0 is
\(=|\frac{2\times 2-(-5)+2}{\sqrt{(2)^2+(-1)^2}}|=|\frac{4+5+2}{\sqrt{5}}|=\frac{11}{\sqrt{5}}\)
2.
Here m = - 4 and c = -4.
Putting these values in y = mx + c, we have
y = - 4x - 4 \(\Rightarrow\) 4x + y + 4 = 0.
3.
Slope of AB = Slope o fCD
Slope of BC = Slope of DA
Also, slope of AB × slope of BC = −1
4.
Let equation of line is \(\frac { x }{ a } +\frac { y }{ 2a } =1\) . Here, we have \(1=\frac { a+0 }{ 2 } \) and \(2=\frac { b+0 }{ 2 } \)
Ans. 2x + y - 4 = 0
5.
If the points A (h, 0), B (a, b), and C (0, k) lie on a line, then
Slope of AB = Slope of BC
\(\frac{b-0}{a-h}=\frac{k-b}{0-a}\)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{b}{a-h}=\frac{k-b}{-a}\)
\(\Rightarrow-a b=(k-b)(a-h)\)
\(\Rightarrow-a b=k a-k h-a b+b h\)
\(\Rightarrow k a+b h=k h\)
\(\text { On dividing both sides by } k h, \text { we obtain }\)
\(\frac{k a}{k h}+\frac{b h}{k h}=\frac{k h}{k h}\)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{a}{h}+\frac{b}{k}=1\)
\(\text { Hence, } \frac{a}{h}+\frac{b}{k}=1\)
6.
Let the given points are \(A({ x }_{ 1 },{ y }_{ 1 })\equiv A(-1,1)\) and,\(B({ x }_{ 2 },{ y }_{ 2 })\equiv B(2,-4)\) then equation of line AB is
\(y-1=\frac { -4-1 }{ 2+1 } (x+1)\)
\( \left[ \because y-{ y }_{ 1 }=\frac { { y }_{ 2 }-{ y }_{ 1 } }{ { x }_{ 2 }-{ x }_{ 1 } } (x-{ x }_{ 1 }) \right]\)
\( \Rightarrow y-1=\frac { -5 }{ 3 } (x+1) \Rightarrow 3y-3=-5x-5\)
\(\Rightarrow 5x+3y+2=0\)
7.
Let(h,k) be the coordinates of the foot of the perpendicular from the point(2,3) on the line x+y-11=0
Then, the slope of the perpendicular line is\(\cfrac { k-3 }{ h-2 } \)
Again the slope of the given line x + y - 11= 0 is -1
using the condition of perpendicularity of lines,we have
(\(\cfrac { k-3 }{ h-2 } \))(-1)=-1 0r k-h=1...(i)
since,(h,k) lies on the given line, we have
h + k - 11 = 0 or h + k = 11.....(ii)
On solving eqs. (i) and (ii) we get h=5 and k=6
hence,(5,6) are the required coordinates of the foot of the perpendicular.
8.
We know that,slope of a line joining two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is m \(=\frac { { y }_{ 2 }-{ y }_{ 1 } }{ { x }_{ 2 }-{ x }_{ 1 } } \)
Slope of line joining the points (3,−2) and (7,−2) is
\(m=\frac { -2-(-2) }{ 7-3 } =\frac { 0 }{ 4 } =0\)
9.
The coordinates of the new origin are h=1, k=2 and the original coordinates are given point are x = 3,y = -4.
The transformation relation between the old coordinates (x,y) and the new coordinates (X,Y) are given by
x = X + h,i.e.X = x - h ...(i)
y = Y+ k,i.e.Y=y-k. ..(ii)
On substituting the values x=3, y=4,h=1 and k=2 ineqs (i) and (ii), we get
X = 3 = 2 and Y = 42 = 6
Hence the coordinates of point (3,-4) in the new system are (2,-6).
10.
Slope of required lines = \(\frac { -1 }{ 7 } \)
Now, let the equation of required lines be y = \(\frac { -1 }{ 7 } x+c.\)
Then, we have
\(\frac { \left| -1+\frac { 1 }{ 7 } -c \right| }{ \sqrt { { 1 }^{ 2 }+{ \left( \frac { 1 }{ 7 } \right) }^{ 2 } } } =1\Rightarrow c=\frac { -6\pm 5\sqrt { 2 } }{ 7 } \)
Ans. x + 7y + 6 \(\pm 5\sqrt { 2 } \) = 0
11.
\({ P }_{ 1 }=\frac { \left| 0+0+3 \right| }{ \sqrt { { \left( -2 \right) }^{ 2 }+{ \left( 1 \right) }^{ 2 } } } =\frac { 3 }{ \sqrt { 5 } } \)
\({ P }_{ 2 }=\frac { \left| 0+0-7 \right| }{ \sqrt { { \left( 1 \right) }^{ 2 }+{ \left( -4 \right) }^{ 2 } } } =\frac { 7 }{ \sqrt { 17 } } \)
Again, \({ P }_{ 1 }=\frac { 3 }{ \sqrt { 5 } } \times \frac { \sqrt { 17 } }{ \sqrt { 17 } } =\sqrt { \frac { 153 }{ 85 } } \)
and \({ P }_{ 2 }=\frac { 7 }{ \sqrt { 17 } } \times \frac { \sqrt { 5 } }{ \sqrt { 5 } } =\sqrt { \frac { 245 }{ 85 } } \)
\(\therefore \sqrt { \frac { 245 }{ 85 } } >\sqrt { \frac { 153 }{ 85 } } \Rightarrow { P }_{ 2 }>{ P }_{ 1 }\)
Ans. x - 4y - 7 = 0 is farther.
12.
First, find out the values of AB,BC,CA by distance formula and prove that \(\triangle ABC\) is an isosceles triangle, then prove that this triangle is also right-angled triangle by Converse of Pythagoras theorem.
13.
(i) Let (x', y') the coordinates of the given point (x, y0 in the new system of translation of axes.
\(\therefore\) x'=x-h \(\Rightarrow\) x=x'+h=x'+1 and y=y'+k=y'+1
Substituting these values of x and y in the given equation x2+xy-3y2-y+2 = 0, we get
(x'+1)2+(x'+1)(y'+1)-3(y'+1)2-(y'+1)+2=0
\(\Rightarrow\) x'2+1+2x'+x'y'+x'+y'+1-3y'2-3-6y'-y'-1+2=0
\(\Rightarrow\) x'2+x'y'-3y'2+3x'-6y' = 0
Hence the equation of the given pair of straight lines in a new system is
x2+xy-3y2+3x-6y=0
(ii) The orgin is shifted to a point (1, 1) and Let (x',y') be the new coordinates of the given point (x, y) in the line.
\(\therefore\) x = x' + h
\(\Rightarrow\) x = x' + 1 and y = y' + 1
Substituting these values of x and y in the given equation xy - y2 - x+y=0 we get,
(x'+1) (y'+1)-(y'+1)2-(x'+1)+(y'+1) = 0
\(\Rightarrow\) x'y' +x' +y' +1-y'2-1-2y'-x'-1+y'+1 = 0
\(\Rightarrow\) x'y'-y'2 = 0
Hence the equation of the given pair of straight lines in a new system is xy-y2 = 0
(iii) Here h = 1 and k = 1
Let (x', y' ) be the coordinates of the new point
\(\therefore\) x = x'+h, y=y' +k
\(\Rightarrow\) x = x'+1, \(\Rightarrow\) y = y' +1
Now substituting the values of x and y is given equation xy-x-y+1 = 0, we get
(x' +1) (y'+1) - (x'+1)-(y'+1)+1=0
\(\Rightarrow\) x'y' +x' +y' +1-x'-1-y'-1+1 =0
\(\Rightarrow\) x' y' = 0
Hence the equation of the given pair of straight lines in a new system of translation of axes is xy = 0.
14.
(i) the origin is shifted to (-3, -2)
\(\therefore\) h = -3 and k = -2
The coordinates of the given point are (1, 1)
\(\therefore\) x = 1 and y = 1
\(\therefore\) x' = x-h and y' = y-k
=1+3 and = 1+2
=4 = 3
Hence the new coordinates of the given point are (4, 3).
(ii) Here h=-3 and k=-2 sfter shifting the origint and the coordinates of the given point are
x=0 and y=1
\(\therefore\) x'=x-h and y'=y-k
= 0+3 and = 1+2
\(\therefore\) x' = 3 and y = 3
Hence the new coordinates of the point are (3, 3)
(iii) Here
h = -3 and k=-2
x=5 and y=0
\(\therefore\) x'=x-h=5+3=8
and y'=y-k=0+2=2
Hence the new coordinates of the point are (8, 2)
(iv) Here
h=-3 and k = -2
x=-1 and y=-2
\(\therefore\) x' = x-h= -1 + 3 = 2
and y' = y-k=-2 + 2 = 0
Hence the new coordinates of the given point are (2, 0).
(v) Here
h=-3 and k = -2
x = 3 and y=-5
\(\therefore\) x'=x-h= 3+3 = 6
and y' = y-k = -5 + 2 = -3
Hence the new coordintes of the point are (6, -3).
