NCERT solution class 10 chapter 7 Coordinate Geometry exercise 7.2 mathematics

EXERCISE 7.2



Q 1, Ex 7.2 - Coordinate Geometry - Chapter 7 - Maths Class 10th - NCERT

Page No 167:

Question 1:

Find the coordinates of the point which divides the join of (− 1, 7) and (4, − 3) in the ratio 2:3.

Answer:

Let P(xy) be the required point. Using the section formula, we obtain


Therefore, the point is (1, 3).


Q 2, Ex 7.2 - Coordinate Geometry - Chapter 7 - Maths Class 10th - NCERT

Question 2:

Find the coordinates of the points of trisection of the line segment joining (4, − 1) and (− 2, − 3).

Answer:


Let P (x1y1) and Q (x2y2) are the points of trisection of the line segment joining the given points i.e., AP = PQ = QB
Therefore, point P divides AB internally in the ratio 1:2.

Point Q divides AB internally in the ratio 2:1.




Question 3:

To conduct Sports Day activities, in your rectangular shaped school ground ABCD, lines have been drawn with chalk powder at a distance of 1 m each. 100 flower pots have been placed at a distance of 1 m from each other along AD, as shown in the following figure. Niharika runs the distance AD on the 2nd line and posts a green flag. Preet runs the distance AD on the eighth line and posts a red flag. What is the distance between both the flags? If Rashmi has to post a blue flag exactly halfway between the line segment joining the two flags, where should she post her flag?

Answer:

It can be observed that Niharika posted the green flag at of the distance AD i.e., m from the starting point of 2nd line. Therefore, the coordinates of this point G is (2, 25).
Similarly, Preet posted red flag at  of the distance AD i.e., m from the starting point of 8th line. Therefore, the coordinates of this point R are (8, 20).
Distance between these flags by using distance formula = GR
=
The point at which Rashmi should post her blue flag is the mid-point of the line joining these points. Let this point be A (xy).

Therefore, Rashmi should post her blue flag at 22.5m on 5th line.


Q 4, Ex 7.2 - Coordinate Geometry - Chapter 7 - Maths Class 10th - NCERT

Question 4:

Find the ratio in which the line segment joining the points (− 3, 10) and (6, − 8) is divided by (− 1, 6).

Answer:

Let the ratio in which the line segment joining (−3, 10) and (6, −8) is divided by point (−1, 6) be k : 1.



Q 5, Ex 7.2 - Coordinate Geometry - Chapter 7 - Maths Class 10th - NCERT

Question 5:

Find the ratio in which the line segment joining A (1, − 5) and B (− 4, 5) is divided by the x-axis. Also find the coordinates of the point of division.

Answer:

Let the ratio in which the line segment joining A (1, −5) and B (−4, 5) is divided by x-axis be.
Therefore, the coordinates of the point of division is .
We know that y-coordinate of any point on x-axis is 0.

Therefore, x-axis divides it in the ratio 1:1.
Division point =

Question 6:

If (1, 2), (4, y), (x, 6) and (3, 5) are the vertices of a parallelogram taken in order, find x and y.

Answer:


Let (1, 2), (4, y), (x, 6), and (3, 5) are the coordinates of A, B, C, D vertices of a parallelogram ABCD. Intersection point O of diagonal AC and BD also divides these diagonals.
Therefore, O is the mid-point of AC and BD.
If O is the mid-point of AC, then the coordinates of O are

If O is the mid-point of BD, then the coordinates of O are

Since both the coordinates are of the same point O,

Question 7:

Find the coordinates of a point A, where AB is the diameter of circle whose centre is (2, − 3) and B is (1, 4)

Answer:

Let the coordinates of point A be (xy).
Mid-point of AB is (2, −3), which is the center of the circle.



Q 8, Ex 7.2 - Coordinate Geometry - Chapter 7 - Maths Class 10th - NCERT

Question 8:

If A and B are (− 2, − 2) and (2, − 4), respectively, find the coordinates of P such that  and P lies on the line segment AB.

Answer:


The coordinates of point A and B are (−2, −2) and (2, −4) respectively.
Since ,
Therefore, AP: PB = 3:4
Point P divides the line segment AB in the ratio 3:4.



Q 9, Ex 7.2 - Coordinate Geometry - Chapter 7 - Maths Class 10th - NCERT

Question 9:

Find the coordinates of the points which divide the line segment joining A (− 2, 2) and B (2, 8) into four equal parts.

Answer:


From the figure, it can be observed that points P, Q, R are dividing the line segment in a ratio 1:3, 1:1, 3:1 respectively.



Q 10, Ex 7.2 - Coordinate Geometry - Chapter 7 - Maths Class 10th - NCERT

Question 10:

Find the area of a rhombus if its vertices are (3, 0), (4, 5), (− 1, 4) and (− 2, −1) taken in order. [Hint: Area of a rhombus = (product of its diagonals)]

Answer:


Let (3, 0), (4, 5), (−1, 4) and (−2, −1) are the vertices A, B, C, D of a rhombus ABCD.
