Question

Seg OA is the radius of a circle with centre O. The coordinates of point A is (0, 2) then decide whether the point B(1, 2) is on the circle?

Solution


Co-ordinates of A = (0, 2)

Co-ordinates of O = (0, 0)

Co-ordinates of B = (1, 2)

Distance between two points = `sqrt((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2`

By distance formula,

d(O, A) = `sqrt((0 - 0)^2 + (0 - 2)^2`

= `sqrt((0)^2 + (-2)^2`

= `sqrt(0 + 4)`

= 2   ...(i)

d(O, B) = `sqrt((0 - 1)^2 + (0 - 2)^2`

`sqrt((-1)^2 + (-2)^2`

= `sqrt(1 + 4)`

= `sqrt(5)`   ...(ii)

∴ From (i) and (ii),

d(O, B) > d(O, A)

∴ d(O, B) > Radius of circle

∴ Point B(1, 2) does not lie on the circle but lies outside the circle.
