The area of the triangle formed by the intersection of a line parallel to x-axis and passing through P (h, k) with the lines y = x and x + y = 2 is 4h^2. Find the locus of the point P.

Question

Arun Kumar · Answer

Hello Student,

221-2376_Screen Shot 2014-07-08 at 1.27.02 pm.png

Area of triangle=(1/2).AB.AC=4h^2
and AB= 2|k–1|=AC
=>4h2 =(1/2).2.(k–1)^2
=>k-1 = ± 2h.
=>locus is y = 2x + 1, y = – 2x + 1.
