Q1. The distance of the point (-3,5) from the x -axis
(a) 2 (b) 3 (c) 1 (d) 5
Ans. (d) 5
The given point is (-3,5)
First number,3 in the point (-3,5) is known as abscissa i.e distance from y-axis and second number, 5 is ordinate i.e distance from x -axis
Q2. The points (2,1), (-3,2),(k,4) are collinear if the value of k is
Ans. Area of triangle formed by joining the given points must be zero because points given to us are collinear
Area of triangle =1/2[x1(y2-y3) +x2(y3-y1) + x3(y1-y2) ]
x1=2,y1=1,x2=-3,y2=2,y3=4,x3=k,
1/2[x1(y2-y3) +x2(y3-y1) + x3(y1-y2) ] = 0
x1(y2-y3) +x2(y3-y1) + x3(y1-y2) = 0
2(2-4) -3(4-1) + k(1-2) = 0
2×-2 -3×3 + k×-1 =0
-4 -9 -k =0
-13 -k = 0
k = -13
Q3. The distance of the point (α, β) from the origin is
(a) α + β (b) α² + β² (c) √(α² +β²)
Ans. The coordinates of origin are (0,0)
The distance between (0,0) and (α, β) = √[(α -0)²+(β -0)²] =√(α²+β²)
Q4.The area of the triangle whose vertices are P(1,2), Q(-2,3) and R(-3,-4) is
(a) 22 (b) 33 (c) 41 (d) 11
Ans.(d) 11
Area of triangle =1/2[x1(y2-y3) +x2(y3-y1) + x3(y1-y2) ]
x1=1,y1=2,x2=-2,y2=3,y3=-4,x3=-3
Area of triangle =1/2[1(3+4) -2(-4-2) -3(2-3) ]
= 1/2(1×7 -2×-6-3×-1) = 1/2(7 +12 +3) = 1/2(22) = 11 sq.unit
Q5. The distance between the points (p +q,p-q) and (p-q,-p-q) is
Ans. The distance(d) between two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is
d = √[(x2-x1)²+ (y2-y1)²] = √[(p-q-p-q)²+ (-p-q-p+q)²] =√[(-2q)² +(-2p)²] =√(4q² +4p²) =2√(p²+q²)
Q6.If (k/4,5) is the mid point of the line segment joining the points (-3,10) and (-9,6),then value of k is
Ans. The mid point of the line segment joining the points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is given as
[(x1+x2)/2,(y1+y2)/2] = [(-3-9)/2,(10+6)/2] = (-12/2, 16/2) = (-6,8)
Q7.The points (1,1),(-2,7) and (3,-3) are
(a) collinear (b) vertices of equilateral triangle (c) vertices of isoscles triangle (d) None of these
Ans.(a) collinear
The given points are (1,1),(-2,7) and (3,-3)
Area of triangle formed by joining the given points must be zero because points given to us are collinear
Area of triangle =1/2[x1(y2-y3) +x2(y3-y1) + x3(y1-y2) ]
x1=1,y1=1,x2=-2,y2=7,y3=-3,x3=3
1/2[x1(y2-y3) +x2(y3-y1) + x3(y1-y2) ] = 0
1(7+3) -2(-3-1) + 3(1-7) = 0
10 – 2×-4 + 3×-6 = 10 + 8 – 18 = 18 -18 =0
Therefore the given points are collinear
Q8.The coordinates of centroid of the triangle whose vertices are (0,6),(8,12) and (8,0) is
(a) (4,6) (b) (16,6) (c) (8,6) (d) (16/3,6)
Ans.(d) (16/3,6)
The coordinates of the centroid of a triangle with vertices (x1,y1),(x2,y2),(x3,y3) are given as
[(x1+x2+x3)/3,(y1+y2+y3)/3]
Therefore centroid of the triangle with vertices (0,6),(8,12) and (8,0) is
[(0+8+8)/3, (6 + 12 + 0)/3] = (16/3,18/3) = (16/3,6)
Q9. Two vertices of the triangle are (3,-5) and (-7,4).If its centroid is (2,-1),then the third vertex is
(a)(10,2) (b) (-10,2) (c) (10,-2) (d) (-10,-2)
Ans.(c) (10,-2)
Let the third vertex of the triangle is (x,y)
The coordinates of the centroid of a triangle with vertices (x1,y1),(x2,y2),(x3,y3) are given as
[(x1+x2+x3)/3,(y1+y2+y3)/3]
(3 -7 +x)/3,(-5 +4 +y)/3 = (2,-1)
(-4 +x)/3 = 2 and (-1+y)/3 = -1
-4 + x = 6 and -1 + y = -3
x = 6 + 4=10 and y = -3 +1 = -2
Therefore third vertex of the given triangle is (10,-2)
Q10.If the points A(1,2),B(0,0) and C (a,b) are collinear then
(a) a = -b (b) 2a = b (c) a = 2b (d) a = b
Ans.(b) 2a = b
The given points are A(1,2),B(0,0) and C(a,b)
Area of triangle formed by joining the given points must be zero because points given to us are collinear
Area of triangle =1/2[x1(y2-y3) +x2(y3-y1) + x3(y1-y2) ]
x1=1,y1=2,x2=0,y2=0,y3=b,x3=a
1/2[1(0-b) +0(b-2) + a(2-0) ] = 0
-b +2a = 0
b = 2a
Q11.If the distance between the points (2,-2) and (-1,x) is 5,one of the value of x is
(a) -2 (b) 2 (c) -1 (d) 1
Ans. (b) 2
The given points are (2,-2) and (-1,x) and distance(d) between them is 5
The distance(d) between two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is
d = √[(x2-x1)²+ (y2-y1)²]
x1=2,y1=-2,x2=-1,y2=x
√[(-1-2)²+ (x+2)²] = 5
Squaring both sides
(-3)²+ (x+2)²=25
9 + x² +4 +4x = 25
x²+4x + 13 -25 =0
x²+4x -12 = 0
x² +6x -2x -12 =0
x(x +6) -2(x +6) =0
(x +6) (x -2) =0
x = -6 and x = 2
Hence one of the zeros is 2

Q12. ABCD is a rectangle whose three vertices are A(0,3), B(0,0) and C(5,0), the length of its diagonal is
(a) 5 (b) 3 (c) √34 (d) 4
Ans. (c) √34
Vertices of the rectangle given to us are A(0,3), B(0,0) and C(5,0)
The length of the diagonal AC is evaluated by applying the distance formula
The distance(d) between two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is
d = √[(x2-x1)²+ (y2-y1)²]
x1=0,y1=3,x2=5,y2=0
d = √[(5-0)²+ (0-3)²] =√[5² +(-3)²] =√(25 +9) =√34
Q13.A circle drawn with origin as a centre passes through the point (13/2,0), the point which doesn’t lie in the interior of the circle is
(a) (-3/4,1) (b) (2,7/3) (c) (5,-1/2) (d) (-6,5/2)
Ans. (d) (-6,5/2)
Centre of the circle is the origin (0,0) and passes through the point (13/2,0)
The distance between (0,0) and (13/2,0) i.e (6.5,0) is the radius of the circle
r = √[(6.5-0)²+(0-0)²]=√6.5² = 6.5 unit
The distance between (-3/4,1) and (0,0) < 6.5
The distance between (2,7/3) and (0,0) <6.5
The distance between (5,-1/2) and (0,0) <6.5
The distance between (-6,5/2) and (0,0) > 6.5
Therefore (-6,5/2) lies in the exterior of the given circle
Q14.The point which divides the line segment joining the points (7,-6) and (3,4) in the ratio 1 : 2 internally lies in the
(a) I quadrant (b) II quadrant (c) III quadrant (d) IV quadrant
Ans.(d) IV quadrant
The given points are (7,-6) and (3,4)
Let the point is (x,y) which divides the line segment joining the given points in the ratio of 1 : 2
If a line segment joining the given points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is divided by a point (x,y) internally in the ratio of m : n then coordinates (x,y) are determined by the section formula as following
x = (mx2+nx1)/(m+n) and y = (my2+ny1)/(m+n)
x1=7,y1=-6,x2=3,y2=4, m =1 and n = 2
x = (1×3+2×7)/(1+2) and y = (1×4+2×-6)/(1+2)
x = (3+14)/3 and y = (4 -12)/3
x = 17/3 and y = -8/3
The required point is (17/3,-8/3) which lies in (iv) quadrant
Q15.One of the two points of trisection of the line segment joining the points A(7,-2) and B(1,-5) which divides the line segment in the ratio 1 : 2 are
(a) (5,-3) (b) (5,3) (c) (-5,-3) (d) (13,0)
Ans.(a) (5,-3)
The end points of the line segment AB given to us are A(7,-2) and B(1,-5), let it is trisected by the points C and D
The point C(x,y) divides the line segment AB into the ratio of 1 : 2
Applying the section formula
x = (mx2+nx1)/(m+n) and y = (my2+ny1)/(m+n)
x1=7,y1=-2,x2=1,y2=-5, m =1 and n = 2
x = (1×1+2×7)/(1+2) and y = (1×-5+2×-2)/(1+2)
x = (1+14)/3 and y = (-5 -4)/3
x = 15/3 and y = -9/3
x = 5 and y = -3

(a) (0,-5) and (2,0) (b) (0,10) and (-4,0) (c) (0,4) and (-10,0) (d) (0,-10) and (4,0)
Ans.(d) (0,-10) and (4,0)
Let the line intersects x axis and y axis at P(x,0) and Q(0,y) respectively
The mid point of the line segment joining the points P(x,0) and Q(o,y) given to us is (2,-5)
[(x+0)/2, (0+ y)2] = [2, -5]
(x/2, y/2) = (2.-5)
x/2 = 2 and y/2 = -5
x =4 and y = -10
The coordinates of P(x,0) =(4,0) and the coordinates of Q(0,y) =(0,-10)
Hence coordinates of P and Q are (4,0) ,(0,-10) respectively
Q17.The ratio in which the point Q(3/4,5/12) divides the line segment joining the points A(1/2,3/2) and B(2,-5) is

Ans.(a) 1 : 5
Let the given point Q(3/4,5/12) divides the line segment joining the points A(1/2,3/2) and B(2,-5) into m : n
Applying the section formula
x = (mx2+nx1)/(m+n) and y = (my2+ny1)/(m+n)
x1=1/2,y1=3/2,x2=2,y2=-5, x =3/4 and y = 5/12
3/4 = (m×2+n×1/2)/(m+n) and 5/12 = (m×-5+n×3/2)/(m+n)
3m + 3n = 8m +2n and 5m +5n = -60m +18n
-5m = -n and 65m = 13n
m/n =1/5 and m/n = 13/65 = 1/5

Area of the rhombus = (Product of the diagonals )/2
The length of the diagonal AD is = √[(3+1)²+(0-4)²] =√[4²+(-4)²] =√(16 +16) =4√2 unit
The length of the diagonal BC is = √[(4+2)²+(5+1)²] =√[6²+6²] =√(36 +36) =6√2 unit
Area of the rhombus = (4√2 ×6√2)/2 = 24 sq.unit

(a) 4 (b) -6 (c) 7 (d) -2
Ans. (c) 7
The given vertices of the parallelogram are A(6,1),B(8,2),C(9,4) and D(p,3)

(p + 8)/2 = 15/2
p+ 8 = 15
p = 15 -8 = 7
