In the following examples , can the segment joining the given points from a triangle ? If triangle is formed , state the type of the triangle considering sides of the triangle. (ii) P(-2,-6) , Q (-4,-2) ,R(-5,0) |
|
Answer» Solution :`P(-2,-6),Q(-4,-2)` and `R(-5,0)` By distance formula, `PQ=sqrt([-4-(-2)]^(2)+[-2-(-6)]^(2))` `=sqrt((-4+2)^(2)+(-2+6)^(2))` `=sqrt((-2)^(2)+(4)^(2))` `=sqrt(4+16)` `=sqrt(20)` `=sqrt(2xx2xx5)` `=2sqrt(5)` `QR=sqrt([-5-(-4)]^(2)+[0-(-2)]^(2))` `=sqrt((-5+4)^(2)+(0+2)^(2))` `=sqrt((-1)^(2)+(2)^(2))` `=sqrt(1+4)` `=sqrt(5)` `PR=sqrt([-5-(-2)]^(2)+[0-(-6)]^(2))` `=sqrt((-5+2)^(2)+(0+6)^(2))` `=sqrt((-3)^(2)+(6)^(2))` `=sqrt(9+36)` `=sqrt(45)` `=sqrt(3xx3xx5)` `=3sqrt(5)` `PQ+QR=2sqrt(5)+sqrt(5)` `:.PQ+QR=3sqrt(5)` `:.PQ+QR=PR` `:.` points P,Q and R are collinear. `:.DeltaPQR` is not formed. The segment JOINING `P(-2,-6),Q(-4,-2)` and `R(-5,0)` does not form a triangle. |

Solve the following quadratic equations by factorisation : (i) 4-11x=3x^(2) (ii) x^(2)-(11)/(4)x+(15)/(8)=0 |
|
Answer» SOLUTION :(i) Given EQUATION is `4-11x=3x^(2)` `implies3x^(2)+11x-4=0` `implies3x^(2)+(12-1)X-4=0` `implies3x^(2)+12x-x-4=0` `implies3x(x+4)-1(x+4)=0` `IMPLIES(3x-1)(x+4)=0` `implies3x-1=0orx+4=0` when `3x-1=0impliesx=(1)/(3)` and `x+4=0impliesx=-4` Hence, `(1)/(3)and-4` are roots of equation. (ii) Given equation is `x^(2)-(11)/(4)x+(15)/(8)=0` Multiplying both sides by 8, we get `8x^(2)-22x+15=0` `implies8x^(2)-(12+10)x+15=0` `implies8x^(2)-12-10x+15=0` `implies4x(2x-3)-5(2x-3)=0` `implies(2x-3)(4x-5)=0` :. either `2x-3=0or4x-5=0` `implies2x=3or4x=5` `impliesx=(3)/(2)orx=(5)/(4)` Hence, `(3)/(2)and(5)/(4)` are the roots of given equation. |
