उत्तर
Since the point is on the y-axis so, X-coordinate is zero.
Let the point be (0, y)
Its distance from (5, –2) and (–3, 2) are equal
∴ `sqrt((0 -5)^2 + (y+2)^2) = sqrt((0+3)^2 + (y -2)^2)`
⇒ `25 + y^2 + 4y + 4 = 9 + y^2 - 4y + 4 ....["squaring both sides"]`
⇒ `4y + 29 = -4y + 13`
⇒ `4y + 4y = 13 - 29`
⇒`8y = (-16)/(8) = -2`
Thus, the point is (0,-2)

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`.
