उत्तर

The point which lies on the perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining the points A(–2, –5) and B(2, 5) is (0, 0).

Explanation:

We know that, the perpendicular bisector of the any line segment divides the segment into two equal parts i.e., the perpendicular bisector of the line segment always passes through the mid-point of the line segment.

Mid-point of the line segment joining the points A(–2, –5) and B(2, 5)

= `((-2 + 2)/2, (-5 + 5)/2)`  ...`["Since, mid-point of any line segment which passes through the points"  (x_1, y_1)  "and"  (x_2, y_2) = ((x_1 + x_2)/2, (y_1 + y_2)/2)]`

= (0, 0)  

Hence, (0, 0) is the required point lies on the perpendicular bisector of the lines segment.

Find distance between point Q(3, – 7) and point R(3, 3)

Solution: Suppose Q(x1, y1) and point R(x2, y2)

x1 = 3, y1 = – 7 and x2 = 3, y2 = 3

Using distance formula,

d(Q, R) = `sqrt(square)`

∴ d(Q, R) = `sqrt(square - 100)`

∴ d(Q, R) =  `sqrt(square)`

∴ d(Q, R) = `square`
