Find the coordinates of point A, where AB is a diameter of the circle with centre (–2, 2) and B is the point with coordinates (3, 4).

उत्तर
Let the centre of the circle be O.
Since AB is the diameter so, O is the midpoint of AB.
Thus, using the section formula,
`(a+3)/(2) = - 2`
⇒ `a = -4 - 3 = -7`
And
`(b + 4)/(2) = 2`
⇒ `b = 4 - 4 = 0`
So, the coordinate of point A is (-7,0).

If the points P(1, 2), Q(0, 0) and R(x, y) are collinear, then find the relation between x and y.
Given points are P(1, 2), Q(0, 0) and R(x, y).
The given points are collinear, so the area of the triangle formed by them is `square`.
∴ `1/2 |x_1(y_2 - y_3) + x_2(y_3 - y_1) + x_3(y_1 - y_2)| = square`
`1/2 |1(square) + 0(square) + x(square)| = square`
`square + square + square` = 0
`square + square` = 0
`square = square`
Hence, the relation between x and y is `square`.
