Concept Detail
Maths / Coordinate Geometry / Distance Formula
(A Brief Glimpse of ABHYAS Content - Have aLook !!!!)

Distance Formula

If two points A and B have the same y-coordinate then A and B lie on a line parallel to the x-axis and the distance between A and B is the difference between their x-coordinates. See fig. Note that large AB=left | x_{2}-x_{1} right |

Similarly, if two points C and D have the same x-coordinate, then C and D lie on a straight line parallel to the y-axis and the distance between them is the difference between their y-coordinates. See fig. Note thatlarge CD=left | y_{2}-y_{1} right |

Distance Formula:

The length of the segment AB which joins large P(x_{1},y_{1})  andlarge Q(x_{2},y_{2}) is

large PQ=sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}

Proof:  We plot points P and Q on the Cartesian plane and construct right triangle PQN. Note that N is the point of intersection of the line drawn through P and parallel to the x-axis, and the line through Q and parallel to the y-axis. As PN is parallel to the x-axis, P and N have the same y-coordinates. Thus, y-coordinate of N is large y_{1}.

Next, as QN is parallel to the y-axis, Q and N have the same x-coordinates. Thus, the x-coordinate of N is large x_{2}.   large therefore  Coordinates of N  are  large (x_{2},y_{1}).

Now,        PN = large left | x_{2}-x_{1} right |      and       QN  = large left | y_{2}-y_{1} right |

By Pythagoras theorem, 

large PQ^{2}=PN^{2}+QN^{2}  large =left | x_{2}-x_{1} right |^{2}+left | y_{2}-y_{1} right |^{2}                

                                               large =(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}

large Rightarrow ;;PQ=sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}

Note: Distance of the point P(x,y) from the origin (0,0) is given by large OP=sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}

 

Illustration: Find the distance between A(2, -3) and B(-3, -8)

Solution:   Here   large x_{1}=2,;;;x_{2}=-3,;;;y_{1}=-3,;;;y_{2}=-8

We know that   large AB^{2}=(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}  large =(-3-2)^{2}+left [ -8-(-3) right ]^{2} large =(-5)^{2}+(-5)^{2}=25+25=50  large Rightarrow ;;;;AB=5sqrt{2};;units

Illustration: If A is the point (x,2), B is (2, -2) and AB = 5 units, find all possible values of x.

Solution:  Given A(x,2) and  B(2, -2) are the two points. Also AB = 5 large Rightarrow AB^{2}=25.

We have,

                 large AB^{2}=(2-x)^{2}+(-2-2)^{2}

large Rightarrow ;;;;25=x^{2}-4x+4+16Rightarrow x^{2}-4x-5=0

large Rightarrow ;;;x^{2}+x-5x-5=0Rightarrow x(x+1)-5(x+1)=0

Rightarrow ;;;(x+1)(x-5)=0 Rightarrow either ;x+1=0;or;x-5=0

large Rightarrow ;;;;;x=-1,or;5

Thus, possible values of x are -1 and 5.

Illustration:Find the value of k if the point P(0,2) is equidistant from A(3,k) and B(k,5)

Solution: 

large AP =sqrt{(0-3)^{2}+(2-k)^{2}}

large BP=sqrt{(0-k)^{2}+(2-5)^{2}}

We are given AP = BP

large Rightarrow large AP^{2}=BP^{2}

large Rightarrow       large (0-3)^{2}+(2-k)^{2}=(0-k)^{2}+(2-5)^{2}

large Rightarrow      large 9+4-4k+k^{2}=k^{2}+9Rightarrow 4-4k=0;or;k=1

Illustration: Find the coordinates of the circumcentre of the triangle whose angular points are A(8,6), B(8, -2) and C(2, -2).

Solution: Let P(x,y) be the circumcentre of large Delta ABC.

Then large AP=BP=CPRightarrow AP^{2}=BP^{2}=CP^{2}.

               As large AP^{2}=BP^{2},

we get large (x-8)^{2}+(y-6)^{2}=(x-8)^{2}+(y+2)^{2}

large Rightarrow ;;y^{2}-12y+36=y^{2}+4y+4Rightarrow -16y=-32;or;y=2

Next, since     large BP^{2}=CP^{2} 

we get large (x-8)^{2}+(y+2)^{2}=(x-2)^{2}+(y+2)^{2}

large Rightarrow        large x^{2}-16x+64=x^{2}-4x+4Rightarrow -12x=-60;or;x=5

Thus, circumcentre of the triangle ABC is (5,2).
