(iii)(4,5),(7,6),(4,3),(1,2)
Answer
Letthepoints(-1,-2),(1,0),(-1,2),and(-3,0)berepresenting
theverticesA,B,C,andDofthegivenquadrilateralrespectively.
Itcanbeobservedthatallsidesofthisquadrilateralareofthesame
lengthandalso,thediagonalsareofthesamelength.Therefore,
thegivenpointsaretheverticesofasquare.
(ii)Letthepoints(-3,5),(3,1),(0,3),and(-1,-4)be
representingtheverticesA,B,C,andDofthegivenquadrilateral
respectively.
Itcanbeobservedthatallsidesofthisquadrilateralareofdifferent

Therefore,thegivenpointsaretheverticesofaparallelogram.
7.Findthepointonthex-axiswhichisequidistantfrom(2,-5)and
(-2,9).
Answer
Wehavetofindapointonx-axis.Therefore,itsy-coordinatewillbe
0.
Letthepointonx-axisbe(x,0)
(x-2)2+25=(x-2)2+81
x 2+4-4x+25=x2+4+4x+81
8x=25-81
8x=-56
x=-7
Therefore,thepointis(-7,0).

(2,-3)andQ(10,y)is10units.
Answer
Itisgiventhatthedistancebetween(2,-3)and(10,y)is10.
64+(y+3)2=100
(y+3)2=36
y+3=6
y+3=+6ory+3=-6
Therefore,y=3or-9

Answer
ItcanbeobservedthatNiharikapostedthegreenflagat1/4thofthe
distanceADi.e.,(1100/4)m=25mfromthestartingpointof2nd
line.Therefore,thecoordinatesofthispointGis(2,25).
Similarly,Preetpostedredflagat1/5ofthedistanceAD
i.e.,(1100/5)m=20mfromthestartingpointof8thline.
Therefore,thecoordinatesofthispointRare(8,20).
Distancebetweentheseflagsbyusingdistanceformula=GR
Therefore,Rashmishouldpostherblueflagat22.5mon5thline.
4.Findtheratioinwhichthelinesegmentjoiningthepoints(-3,10)
and(6,-8)isdividedby(-1,6).
Answer
Lettheratioinwhichthelinesegmentjoining(-3,10)and(6,-8)is
dividedbypoint(-1,6)bek:1.Therefore,-1=6k-3/k+1
-k-1=6k-3
7k=2
k=2/7
Therefore,therequiredratiois2:7.
5.FindtheratioinwhichthelinesegmentjoiningA(1,-5)andB(4,5)isdividedbythex-axis.Alsofindthecoordinatesofthepointof
division.
Answer
LettheratioinwhichthelinesegmentjoiningA(1,-5)andB(-4,
5)isdividedbyx-axisbe
.
Therefore,thecoordinatesofthepointofdivisionis(-4k+1/k+1,5k5/k+1).
Weknowthaty-coordinateofanypointonx-axisis0.
5k-5/k+1=0
Therefore,x-axisdividesitintheratio1:1.

7.FindthecoordinatesofapointA,whereABisthediameterof
circlewhosecentreis(2,-3)andBis(1,4).
Answer
LetthecoordinatesofpointAbe(x,y).
Mid-pointofABis(2,-3),whichisthecenterofthecircle.
x+1=4andy+4=-6
x=3andy=-10
Therefore,thecoordinatesofAare(3,-10).
8.IfAandBare(2,2)and(2,4),respectively,findthe
coordinatesofPsuchthatAP=3/7ABandPliesontheline
segmentAB.
Answer
ThecoordinatesofpointAandBare(-2,-2)and(2,-4)respectively.
SinceAP=3/7AB
Therefore,AP:PB=3:4
PointPdividesthelinesegmentABintheratio3:4.
9.Findthecoordinatesofthepointswhichdividethelinesegment

Exercises7.3
1.Findtheareaofthetrianglewhoseverticesare:
(i)(2,3),(-1,0),(2,-4)
(ii)(-5,-1),(3,-5),(5,2)
Answer
(i)Areaofatriangleisgivenby
Areaoftriangle=1/2{x 1(y 2-y 3)+x 2(y 3-y 1)+x 3(y 1-y 2)}
Areaofthegiventriangle=1/2[2{0-(-4)}+(-1){(-4)-(3)}+2(30)]
=1/2{8+7+6}
=21/2squareunits.
(ii)Areaofthegiventriangle=1/2[-5{(-5)-(4)}+3(2-(-1))+5{-1(-5)}]
=1/2{35+9+20}
=32squareunits
2.Ineachofthefollowingfindthevalueof'k',forwhichthepoints
arecollinear.
(i)(7,-2),(5,1),(3,-k)
(ii)(8,1),(k,-4),(2,-5)
Answer
(i)Forcollinearpoints,areaoftriangleformedbythemiszero.
Therefore,forpoints(7,-2)(5,1),and(3,k),area=0
1/2[7{1-k}+5(k-(-2))+3{(-2)+1}]=0
7-7k+5k+10-9=0
-2k+8=0
k=4
(ii)Forcollinearpoints,areaoftriangleformedbythemiszero.
Therefore,forpoints(8,1),(k,-4),and(2,-5),area=0
1/2[8{-4-(-5)}+k{(-5)-(1)}+2{1-(-4)}]=0
8-6k+10=0
6k=18
k=3
3.Findtheareaofthetriangleformedbyjoiningthemid-pointsof
thesidesofthetrianglewhoseverticesare(0,-1),(2,1)and(0,3).
Findtheratioofthisareatotheareaofthegiventriangle.
Answer
LettheverticesofthetrianglebeA(0,-1),B(2,1),C(0,3).
LetD,E,Fbethemid-pointsofthesidesofthistriangle.
CoordinatesofD,E,andFaregivenby
D=(0+2/2,-1+1/2)=(1,0)
E=(0+0/2,-3-1/2)=(0,1)
F=(2+0/2,1+3/2)=(1,2)
Areaofatriangle=1/2{x 1(y 2-y 3)+x 2(y 3-y 1)+x 3(y 1-y 2)}
AreaofDEF=1/2{1(2-1)+1(1-0)+0(0-2)}
=1/2(1+1)=1squareunits
AreaofABC=1/2[0(1-3)+2{3-(-1)}+0(-1-1)]
=1/2{8}=4squareunits
Therefore,therequiredratiois1:4.
4.Findtheareaofthequadrilateralwhosevertices,takeninorder,
are(-4,-2),(-3,-5),(3,-2)and(2,3).
Answer
LettheverticesofthequadrilateralbeA(-4,-2),B(-3,-5),C(3,
-2),andD(2,3).JoinACtoformtwotrianglesABCandACD.
Areaofatriangle=1/2{x 1(y 2-y 3)+x 2(y 3-y 1)+x 3(y 1-y 2)}
AreaofABC=1/2[(-4){(-5)-(-2)}+(-3){(-2)-(-2)}+3{(-2)(-5)}]
=1/2(12+0+9)
=21/2squareunits
AreaofACD=1/2[(-4){(-2)-(3)}+3{(3)-(-2)}+2{(-2)-(-2)}]
=1/2(20+15+0)
=35/2squareunits
AreaofABCD=AreaofABC+AreaofACD
=(21/2+35/2)squareunits=28squareunits
5.YouhavestudiedinClassIXthatamedianofatriangledividesit
intotwotrianglesofequalareas.VerifythisresultforABCwhose
verticesareA(4,-6),B(3,-2)andC(5,2).
Answer
LettheverticesofthetrianglebeA(4,-6),B(3,-2),andC(5,2).
LetDbethemid-pointofsideBCofABC.Therefore,ADisthe
medianinABC.
CoordinatesofpointD=(3+5/2,-2+2/2)=(4,0)
Areaofatriangle=1/2{x 1(y 2-y 3)+x 2(y 3-y 1)+x 3(y 1-y 2)}
AreaofABD=1/2[(4){(-2)-(0)}+3{(0)-(-6)}+(4){(-6)-(-2)}]
=1/2(-8+18-16)
=-3squareunits
However,areacannotbenegative.Therefore,areaofABDis3
squareunits.
AreaofABD=1/2[(4){0-(2)}+4{(2)-(-6)}+(5){(-6)-(0)}]
=1/2(-8+32-30)
=-3squareunits
However,areacannotbenegative.Therefore,areaofABDis3
squareunits.
Theareaofbothsidesissame.Thus,medianADhasdivided
ABCintwotrianglesofequalareas.
