Coordinate Geometry


Exercise 7.2


Ex 7.2 Question 1.


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

Solution:


Ex 7.2 Question 2.

Solution:


Ex 7.2 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 1/4 th the distance AD on the 2nd line and posts a green flag. Preet runs 1/5th 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?

Solution:


Ex 7.2 Question 4.


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

Solution:


Ex 7.2 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.

Solution:


Ex 7.2 Question 6.


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

Solution:
