उत्तर

The coordinates of the foot of the perpendicular from the point (2, 3) on the line x + y – 11 = 0 are (5, 6).

Explanation:

Let (h, k) be the coordinates of the foot of the perpendicular from the point (2, 3) on the line x + y – 11 = 0.

Then, the slope of the perpendicular line is `(k - 3)/(h - 2)`

Again the slope of the given line x + y – 11 = 0 is – 1 (why?)

Using the condition of perpendicularity of lines, we have

`(k - 3)/(h - 2) (-1)` = – 1  (Why?)

or k – h = 1  ....(1)

Since (h, k) lies on the given line, we have,

h + k – 11 = 0 or h + k = 11   ....(2)

Solving (1) and (2)

We get h = 5 and k = 6.

Thus (5, 6) are the required coordinates of the foot of the perpendicular.
