Question 21 Mark
Find the point on x-axis which is equidistant from the points A(3, 2, 2) and B(5, 5, 4).
Answer
We know that the y and z coordinates of the point on the x-axis are 0.
So, let the required point be C(x, y, z)
Now, CA = CB
$\sqrt{(3-\text{x})^2+(2-0)^2+(2-0)^2}=\sqrt{(5-\text{x})^2+(5-0)^2+(4-0)^2}$
$\Rightarrow9-6\text{x}+\text{x}^2+4+4=25-10\text{x}+\text{x}^2+25+16$
$\Rightarrow17-6\text{x}+\text{x}^2=66-10\text{x}+\text{x}^2$
$\Rightarrow4\text{x}=49$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{49}{4}$
Hence, the required Point is $\Big(\frac{49}{4},\ 0,\ 0\Big)$

Question 31 Mark
Find the ratio in which the line segment joining the points (2, 4, 5) and (3, −5, 4) is divided by the yz-plane.
Answer
Let the yz-plane divide the line sgement joining the points (2, 4, 5) and (3, −5, 4) in m : 1.
Now, we know that on yz-plane the coordinate of x is 0.
$\therefore\frac{\text{m}\times3+1\times2}{\text{m}+1}=0$
$\Rightarrow 3\text{m} + 2 = 0$
$\Rightarrow\text{m}=-\frac{2}{3}$
Hence, yz-plane divide the line sgement joining the points (2, 4, 5) and (3, −5, 4) in 2 : 3 externally.

Question 51 Mark
Write the coordinates of the point P which is five-sixth of the way from A(-2, 0, 6) to B(10, -6, -12).
Answer
Let the coordinates of the point be P(x, y, z)
Now
$\text{PA}=\frac{5}{6}\text{PB}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{PA}}{\text{PB}}=\frac{5}{6}$
$\therefore\ \text{x}=\frac{5\times10-6\times2}{5+6},\ \text{y}=\frac{5\times(-6)+6\times0}{5+6},\ \text{z}=\frac{5\times(-12)+6\times6}{5+6}$
$\therefore\ \text{x}=\frac{38}{11},\ \text{y}=\frac{-24}{11},\ \text{z}=\frac{-34}{11}$
Hence, the coordinates of the point is $\Big(\frac{38}{11},\ \frac{-24}{11},\ \frac{-34}{11}\Big)$

Question 101 Mark
The coordinates of the mid-points of sides AB, BC and CA of $\triangle\text{ABC}$ are D(1, 2, -3), E(3, 0, 1) and F(-1, 1, -4) respectively. Write the coordinates of its centroid.
Answer
Let the coordintes of the triangles be A(x1, y2, z3), B(x1, y2, z3) and C(x1, y2, z3).
Now,
Mid-point of AB is D(1, 2, −3)
$\frac{\text{x}_1+\text{x}_2}{2}=1,\ \frac{\text{y}_1+\text{y}_2}{2}=2\text{ and }\frac{\text{z}_1+\text{z}_2}{2}=-3$
⇒ x1 + x2 = 2, y1 + y2 = 4 and z1 + z2 = -6 ...(i)
Mid-point of BC is E(3, 0, 1)
$\frac{\text{x}_2+\text{x}_3}{2}=3,\ \frac{\text{y}_2+\text{y}_3}{2}=0\text{ and }\frac{\text{z}_2+\text{z}_3}{2}=1$
⇒ x2 + x3 = 6, y2 + y3 = 4 = 0 and z2 + z3 = 2 ...(ii)
Mid-point of AC is F(-1, 1, -4)
$\frac{\text{x}_1+\text{x}_3}{2}=-1,\ \frac{\text{y}_1+\text{y}_3}{2}=1\text{ and }\frac{\text{z}_1+\text{z}_3}{2}=-4$
⇒ x1 + x3 = -2, y1 + y3 = 4 = 2 and z1 + z3 = -8 ...(iii)
Adding (1), (2) and (3), We get
2(x1 + x2 + x3) = 6, 2(y1 + y2 + y3) = 6 and 2(z1 + z2 + z3) = -12
⇒ x1 + x2 + x3 = 3, y1 + y2 + y3 = 3 and z1 + z2 + z3 = -6
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{x}_1+\text{x}_2+\text{x}_3}{3}=1,\ \frac{\text{y}_1+\text{y}_2+\text{y}_3}{3}=1\text{ and }\frac{\text{z}_1+\text{z}_2+\text{z}_3}{3}=-2$
Hence, the centroid of the traingle ABC is (1, 1, -2).

Question 131 Mark
Determine the point on yz-plane which is equidistant from points A(2, 0, 3), B(0, 3, 2) and C(0, 0, 1).
Answer
The coordiante of x point on yz-plane is 0
Let the point be P(0, y, z).
Now, PA = PB
$\sqrt{(2-0)^2+(0-\text{y})^2+(3-\text{z})^2}=\sqrt{(0-0)^2+(3-\text{y})^2+(2-\text{z})^2}$
$\Rightarrow4+\text{y}^2+9-6\text{z+}\text{z}^2=9-6\text{y}+\text{y}^2+4-4\text{z}+\text{z}^2$
$\Rightarrow-6\text{z}=-6\text{y}-4\text{z}$
$\Rightarrow3\text{y}-\text{z}=0\ ...\text{(i)}$
Also, PA = PC
$\sqrt{(2-0)^2+(0-\text{y})^2+(3-\text{z})^2}=\sqrt{(0-0)^2+(0-\text{y})^2+(1-\text{z})^2}$
$\Rightarrow4+\text{y}^2+9-6\text{z+}\text{z}^2=\text{y}^2+1-2\text{z}+\text{z}^2$
$\Rightarrow13-6\text{z}=1-2\text{z}$
$\Rightarrow-4\text{z}=-12$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=3\ ...\text{(ii)}$
Solving (i) and (ii), we get
y = 1
Hence, the coordinates of the point is (0, 1, 3).

Question 151 Mark
If the distance between the points P(a, 2, 1) and Q(1, −1, 1) is 5 units, find the value of a.
Answer
$\text{PQ}=5$
$\Rightarrow\sqrt{(1-\text{a})^2+(-1-2)^2+(1-1)^2}=5$
$\Rightarrow(1-\text{a})^2+(-3)^2=25$
$\Rightarrow1-2\text{a+}\text{a}^2+9-25=0$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}^2-2\text{a}-15=0$
$\Rightarrow(\text{a}-5)(\text{a}+3)=0$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}=5,\ -3$

Question 161 Mark
Find the point on y-axis which is at a distance of $\sqrt{10}$ units from the point (1, 2, 3).
Answer
We know that the x and z coordinates of the point on the y-axis are 0.
So, let the required point be (0, y, 0)
Now,
$\sqrt{(1-0)^2+(2-\text{y})^2+(3-0)^2}=\sqrt{10}$
$\Rightarrow\ 1+4-4\text{y}+\text{y}^2+9=10$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{y}^2-4\text{y}+4=0$
$\Rightarrow\ (\text{y}-2)^2=0$
$\text{y}=2,\ 2$
Hence, the required point is (0, 2, 0)

Write the coordinates of third vertex of a triangle having centroid at the origin and two vertices at (3, -5, 7) and (3, 0, 1).
Answer
Let the coordinates of third vertex  be (x1, y1, z1)
Now,
$\frac{\text{x}_1+3+3}{3}=0,\ \frac{\text{y}_1+5+0}{3}=0\text{ and }\frac{\text{z}_1+7+1}{3}=0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}_1 = −6,\ \text{y}_1 = 5\text{ and }\text{z}_1 = −8$
Hence, the coordinates of third vertex of a triangle is (−6, 5, −8).

Answer
We have A(a, 1, 3), B(-2, b, -5) and C(4, 7, c)
Now,
$\frac{\text{a}-2+4}{3}=0,\ \frac{1+\text{b}+7}{3}=0\text{ and }\frac{3-5+\text{c}}{3}=0$

Question 211 Mark
Find the coordinates of a point equidistant from the origin and points A(a, 0, 0), B(0, b, 0) and C(0, 0, c).
Answer
Let the point be P(x, y, z).
Now, PO = PA
$\sqrt{(0-\text{x})^2+(0-\text{y})^2+(0-\text{z})^2}=\sqrt{(\text{a}-\text{x})^2+(0-\text{y})^2+(0-\text{z})^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2+\text{z}^2=\text{a}^2-2\text{ax}+\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2+\text{z}^2$
$\Rightarrow0=\text{a}^2-2\text{ax}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{\text{a}}{2}$
Also, PO = PB
$\sqrt{(0-\text{x})^2+(0-\text{y})^2+(0-\text{z})^2}=\sqrt{(0-\text{x})^2+(\text{b}-\text{y})^2+(0-\text{z})^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2+\text{z}^2=\text{x}^2-2\text{by}+\text{y}^2+\text{z}^2$
$\Rightarrow0=\text{b}^2-2\text{by}$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}=\frac{\text{b}}{2}$
Again, PO = PC
$\sqrt{(0-\text{x})^2+(0-\text{y})^2+(0-\text{z})^2}=\sqrt{(0-\text{x})^2+(\text{b}-\text{y})^2+(\text{c}-\text{z})^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2+\text{z}^2=\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2+\text{c}^2-2\text{cz}+\text{z}^2$
$\Rightarrow0=\text{c}^2-2\text{cz}$
$\Rightarrow\text{z}=\frac{\text{c}}{2}$
Hence, the coordinates of the point is $\Big(\frac{\text{a}}{2},\frac{\text{b}}{2},\frac{\text{c}}{2}\Big)$
