उत्तर
Let (x1, y1) be the coordinates of the given point P and m be the slope of the line.
∴ Equation of the line is y – y1 = m(x – x1) .......(i)
Given points are A(2, 0), B(0, 2) and C(1, 1).
Perpendicular distance from A(2, 0) to the line (i) d1 (say)
d1 = `(0 - y_1 - m(2 - x_1))/sqrt(1 + m^2)`
Perpendicular distance from B(0, 2) d2 (say)
d2 = `(2 - y_1 - m(0 - x_1))/sqrt(1 + m^2)`
Similarly, perpendicular distance from C(1, 1) d3 (say)
d3 = `(1 - y_1 - m(1 - x_1))/sqrt(1 + m^2)`
We have d1 + d2 + d3 = 0
∴ `(0 - y_1 - m(2 - x_1))/sqrt(1 + m^2) + (2 - y_1 - m(0 - x_1))/sqrt(1 + m^2) + (1 - y_1 - m(1 - x_1))/sqrt(1 + m^2)` = 0
⇒ – y1 – 2m + mx1 + 2 – y1 + mx1 + 1 – y1 – m + mx1 = 0
⇒ 3mx1 – 3y1 – 3m + 3 = 0
⇒ mx1 – y1 – m + 1 = 0
Since the point (1, 1) satisfies the above equation.
Hence, the point (1, 1) lies on the line.
