उत्तर
Let P(x1, y1) = P(0, 9), Q(x2, y2) = Q(–4, 1), R(x3, y3) = R(4, 1)
By distance formula,
d(P, Q) = `sqrt((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2`
= `sqrt([(-4) - 0]^2 + (1 - 9)^2`
= `sqrt((-4)^2 + (-8)^2`
= `sqrt(16 + 64)`
= `sqrt(80)`
= `4sqrt(5)`
And
d(P, R) = `sqrt((x_3 - x_1)^2 + (y_3 - y_1)^2`
= `sqrt((4 - 0)^2 + (1 - 9)^2`
= `sqrt(4^2 + (-8)^2`
= `sqrt(16 + 64)`
= `sqrt(80)`
= `4sqrt(5)`
Here, d(P, Q) = d(P, R)
∴ The point (0, 9) is equidistant from (–4, 1) and (4, 1).
