► Distance Formula :–
Distance between A and B is denoted by d(A, B) or AB. Distance formula is defined by as follow :
- For R1 :– If A(x) and B(y), then AB =
- For R2 :– If A (x1, y1) and B ( x2, y2), then AB =
- For R3 :– If A (x1, y1, z1) and B ( x2, y2, z2), then
AB =
Properties for Distance Formula :–
There are mainly four properties for distance formula, which are as follow :
- AB 0
- AB = 0 A = B
- AB = BA
- AB AC + BC
► Shifting of Origin ( Without changing the scale ) :–
Shifting the origin at (h, k), the new co–ordinates of P(x, y) is P’ (x’, y’ ). And
x’ = x – h, y’ = y – k
► Area of a triangle :–
If A (x1, y1), B ( x2, y2) and C ( x3, y3), then
Area of = ABC = = ; Where, D =
► Condition for collinearity :–
If A (x1, y1), B ( x2, y2) and C ( x3, y3) are collinear = 0
► Division of line – segment :–
Internal Division :–
- If P divides from A, internally, in the ratio , then =
- A – P – B
- Let, A (x1, y1) & B ( x2, y2). If P (x, y) divides from A in the ratio , then
x = and y =
Let, A (x1, y1) & B ( x2, y2). If P (x, y) divides from A in the ratio λ = m : n, then
x = and y =
Internal Division :–
- If P divides \overline{\mathrm{AB}} from A, internally, in the ratio λ, then λ = –
- P – A – B ⇔ – 1 < λ < 0 & A – B – P ⇔ λ < – 1
- Let, A (x1, y1) & B ( x2, y2). If P (x, y) divides from A in the ratio λ, then
x = and y = ; Where, λ ≠ – 1.
- Let, A (x1, y1) & B ( x2, y2). If P (x, y) divides from A in the ratio λ = m : – n, then
x = and y = ; Where, λ ≠ – 1.
► Centres of a triangle :–
↦ Circumcentre ( P ) :–
Let, A (x1, y1), B ( x2, y2) and C ( x3, y3). If P (x, y) is a circumcentre of Δ ABC, then PA = PB = PC = R ( Circum–radius )
↦ Centroid ( G ) :–
Let, A (x1, y1), B ( x2, y2) and C ( x3, y3). If G (x, y) is a in centroid of Δ ABC, then x = & y =
↦ In centre ( I ) :–
Let, A (x1, y1), B ( x2, y2) and C ( x3, y3). If I (x, y) is a in centre of Δ ABC, then x = & y =
; Where, a = BC, b = AC, c = AB
↦ Orthocentre ( H ) :–
G divides from P in the ratio 2 : 1.
