 CASE STUDY 2
Aditya, Ritesh and Damodar are fast friend since childhood. They always want to
sit in a row in the classroom . But teacher doesn’t allow them and rotate the seats
row-wise everyday. Ritesh is very good in maths and he does distance calculation
everyday. He consider the centre of class as origin and marks their position on a
paper in a co-ordinate system. One day Ritesh make the following diagram of their
seating position marked Aditya as A, Ritesh as B and Damodar as C.

(i) What is the distance between A and B 1

(ii) What is the distance between B and C 1
(iii) A point D lies on the line segment between points A and B such that AD :DB =
4 : 3 . What are the the coordinates of point D 2
OR
(iii) If the point P(k, 0) divides the line segment joining the points A(2, –2) and B(–
7, 4) in the ratio 1 : 2, then find the value of k 2

In a GPS, The lines that run east-west are known as lines of latitude, and the lines running
north-south are known as lines of longitude. The latitude and the longitude of a place are its
coordinates and the distance formula is used to find the distance between two places.
The distance between two
parallel lines is approximately
150 km.
A family from Uttar Pradesh
planned a round trip from
Lucknow (L) to Puri (P) via Bhuj
(B) and Nashik (N) as shown in
the given figure below-

Based on the above information answer the following questions using the coordinate
geometry.
(i) Find the distance between Lucknow (L) to Bhuj(B). 1
(ii) If Kota (K), internally divide the line segment joining Lucknow (L) to Bhuj (B) into 3 : 2 then
then find the coordinate of Kota (K). 1
(iii) Name the type of triangle formed by the places Lucknow (L), Nashik (N) and Puri (P) 2
OR
(iii) Find a place (point) on the longitude (y-axis) which is equidistant from the points Lucknow
(L) and Puri (P). 2
