Q14. The points A (2, 9), B (a, 5) and C (5, 5) are the vertices of a
triangle ABC right angled at B. Find the values of ‘a’ and hence the
area of ∆ABC.
Q15. Two vertices of an isosceles triangle are (2, 0) and (2, 5). Find the
third vertex if the length of the equal sides is 3.
Q16. Find a point which is equidistant from the point A (-5, 4) and B (-1,
6). How many such points are there?
Q17. The centre of a circle is (2a, a – 7). Find the values of a if the circle
passes through the point (11, -9) and has diameter 10√2 units.
Q18. Ayush starts walking from his house to office. Instead of going to
the office directly, he goes to a bank first, from there to his
daughter’s school and then reaches the office. What is the extra
distance travelled by Ayush in reaching the office? (Assume that
all distance covered are in straight lines). If the house is situated at
(2, 4), bank at (5, 8), school at (13, 14) and office at (13, 26) and
coordinates are in kilometers.
