उत्तर १

Let A (-4,-1); B (-2,-4); C (4, 0) and D (2, 3) be the vertices of a quadrilateral. We have to prove that the quadrilateral ABCD is a rectangle.

So we should find the lengths of opposite sides of quadrilateral ABCD.

`AB = sqrt((-2+4)^2) + (-4 + 1)^2)`

`= sqrt(4 + 9)`

`= sqrt13`

`CD = sqrt((4 - 2)^2 + (0 - 3)^2)`

`= sqrt(4 +9)`

`= sqrt13`

Opposite sides are equal. So now we will check the lengths of the diagonals.

`AC = sqrt((4 + 4)^2 + (0 + 1)^2)`

`= sqrt(64 + 1)`

`= sqrt(65)`

`BD = sqrt((2 + 2)^2 + (3 + 4)^2)`

`= sqrt(16 + 49)`

`= sqrt65`

Opposite sides are equal as well as the diagonals are equal. Hence ABCD is a rectangle.

उत्तर २

The given points are  A (-4,-1); B (-2,-4); C (4, 0) and D (2, 3) .

`AB = sqrt({-2-(-4)}^2 + { -4-(-1)}^2) = sqrt ((2)^2+(-3)^2) = sqrt(4+9) = sqrt(13) ` units

` BC = sqrt({ 4-(-2)}^2+{0-(-4)}^2) = sqrt((6)^2 +(4)^2) = sqrt(36+16) = sqrt(52) = 2 sqrt(13)  units`

`CD = sqrt((2-4)^2 +(3-0)^2) = sqrt((-2)^2 +(3)^2) = sqrt(4+9) = sqrt(13)  units`

`AD = sqrt({2-(-4)}^2 + {3-(-1)}^2) = sqrt((6)^2 +(4)^2) = sqrt(36+16) = sqrt(52) = 2 sqrt(13) units`

`Thus , AB = CD = sqrt(13)   units and BC = AD = 2 sqrt(13)   units`

Also , `AC = sqrt({4-(-4)}^2+{0-(-1)}^2) = sqrt ((8)^2+(1)^2 ) = sqrt(64+1) = sqrt(65)  units`

`BD = sqrt({2-(-2)}^2 +{3-(-4)}^2) = sqrt((4)^2 +(7)^2) = sqrt(16+49) = sqrt(65)  units`

Also, diagonal AC = diagonal BD

Hence, the given points form a rectanglr

(Street Plan): A city has two main roads which cross each other at the centre of the city. These two roads are along the North-South direction and East-West direction.

All the other streets of the city run parallel to these roads and are 200 m apart. There are 5 streets in each direction. Using 1cm = 200 m, draw a model of the city on your notebook. Represent the roads/streets by single lines.

There are many cross- streets in your model. A particular cross-street is made by two streets, one running in the North - South direction and another in the East - West direction. Each cross street is referred to in the following manner : If the 2nd street running in the North - South direction and 5th in the East - West direction meet at some crossing, then we will call this cross-street (2, 5). Using this convention, find:

  1. how many cross - streets can be referred to as (4, 3).
  2. how many cross - streets can be referred to as (3, 4).
