उत्तर
It is given that distance between P (x, 2) and Q(3 , - 6 ) is 10.
In general, the distance between A(x1 , y 1 ) and B (x2 , y2) is given by,
`AB^2 = ( x_2-x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2`
So,
`10^2 = (x - 3)^2 + (2 + 6)^2`
On further simplification,
`(x - 3)^2 = 36 `
` x = 3 +- 6`
`= 9 - 3`
We will neglect the negative value. So,
x = 9

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`.
Assertion (A): The ratio in which the line segment joining (2, -3) and (5, 6) internally divided by x-axis is 1:2.
Reason (R): as formula for the internal division is `((mx_2 + nx_1)/(m + n) , (my_2 + ny_1)/(m + n))`
