Solution
We have a triangle ΔABC whose co-ordinates are A (0, 0); B (1, 0); C (0, 1). So clearly the triangle is right angled triangle, right angled at A. So,
AB = 1 unit
AC = 1 unit
Now apply Pythagoras theorem to get the hypotenuse,
`BC = sqrt(AB^2 + Ac^2 )`
`= sqrt(2)`
So the perimeter of the triangle is,
= AB + BC + AC
`= 1 + 1+ sqrt(2)`
`= 2 + sqrt(2)`

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`.
A tiling or tessellation of a flat surface is the covering of a plane using one or more geometric shapes, called tiles, with no overlaps and no gaps. Historically, tessellations were used in ancient Rome and in Islamic art. You may find tessellation patterns on floors, walls, paintings etc. Shown below is a tiled floor in the archaeological Museum of Seville, made using squares, triangles and hexagons.
A craftsman thought of making a floor pattern after being inspired by the above design. To ensure accuracy in his work, he made the pattern on the Cartesian plane. He used regular octagons, squares and triangles for his floor tessellation pattern
