⇒ 4d = b – d ⇒ b = 5b.
The equation of a line passing through the
origin and perpendicular to 3x –4y = 25 is ∴ The sides of the triangle are
4x + 3y = 0. a = b – d = 5d – d = 4d, b = 5d and
Solving these two equations we get x = 3, c = b + d = 5d + d = 6d.
y = – 4. Hence, the sides are in the ratio 4 : 5 : 6
Hence, the nearest point on the line from
the origin is (3, –4).

Also, PR = |z3 – z1| = ( − 4 − 4 ) 2 + ( 3 − 1) 2 = 68

and QS = |z4 – z2| = ( −1 − 1)2 + ( −2 − 6)2 = 68.
