Find distance of point A(6, 8) from origin

उत्तर

Let A(x1, y1) = A(6, 8), O(x2, y2) = O(0, 0)

∴ x1 = 6, y1 = 8, x2 = 0, y2 = 0

By distance formula,

d(A, O) =`sqrt((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2`

= `sqrt((0 - 6)^2 + (0 - 8)^2`

= `sqrt(36 + 64)`

= `sqrt(100)`

= 10 cm

∴ The distance of point A(6, 8) from origin is 10 cm.

Case Study -2

A hockey field is the playing surface for the game of hockey. Historically, the game was played on natural turf (grass) but nowadays it is predominantly played on an artificial turf.

It is rectangular in shape - 100 yards by 60 yards. Goals consist of two upright posts placed equidistant from the centre of the backline, joined at the top by a horizontal crossbar. The inner edges of the posts must be 3.66 metres (4 yards) apart, and the lower edge of the crossbar must be 2.14 metres (7 feet) above the ground.

Each team plays with 11 players on the field during the game including the goalie. Positions you might play include -

  • Forward: As shown by players A, B, C and D.
  • Midfielders: As shown by players E, F and G.
  • Fullbacks: As shown by players H, I and J.
  • Goalie: As shown by player K.

Using the picture of a hockey field below, answer the questions that follow:

The point on x axis equidistant from I and E is ______.


Find the value of a, if the distance between the points A(–3, –14) and B(a, –5) is 9 units.

Read the following passage:

Alia and Shagun are friends living on the same street in Patel Nagar. Shagun's house is at the intersection of one street with another street on which there is a library. They both study in the same school and that is not far from Shagun's house. Suppose the school is situated at the point O, i.e., the origin, Alia's house is at A. Shagun's house is at B and library is at C.

Based on the above information, answer the following questions.

  1. How far is Alia's house from Shagun's house?
  2. How far is the library from Shagun's house?
  3. Show that for Shagun, school is farther compared to Alia's house and library.
    OR
    Show that Alia’s house, shagun’s house and library for an isosceles right triangle.
