उत्तर
Let the coordinates of the point on x-axis be (x, 0).
From the given information, we have:
`sqrt((x -11)^2 + (0 + 8)^2)` = 17
(x - 11)2 + (0 + 8)2 = 289
x2 + 121 - 22x + 64 = 289
x2 - 22x - 104 = 0
x2 - 26x + 4x - 104 = 0
x(x - 26) + 4(x - 26) = 0
(x - 26)(x + 4) = 0
x = 26, -4
Thus, the required co-ordinates of the points on x-axis are (26, 0) and (-4, 0).

In a GPS, The lines that run east-west are known as lines of latitude, and the lines running north-south are known as lines of longitude. The latitude and the longitude of a place are its coordinates and the distance formula is used to find the distance between two places. The distance between two parallel lines is approximately 150 km.
