Coordinate Geometry ASSERTION CL 10
Coordinate Geometry ASSERTION CL 10
Answer : (d) Assertion (A): Distance between points A(cos 𝜃, sin 𝜃) and B(sin 𝜃, - cos 𝜃) is
given by
Q 2. Assertion (A): The point P(-4, 6) divides the join of A(-6, 10) and B(3,-8) in the ratio 2:
7.
Reason (R): If the point C(x, y) divides the join of A(x1,y1) and B(x2,y2) in the ratio m: n,
then
Answer : (a) Assertion (A): Let P(-4, 6) divides A(-6, 10) and B(3.-8) in the ratio k: 1.
Answer : Assertion (A): X-coordinate of each point lies on Y-axis is zero. So, the point (0,
4) always lies on Y-axis.
Thus, Assertion (A) is true.
Reason (R): It is a true statement. Hence, both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) is true and
Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
Q 4. Assertion (A): The coordinates of the points which divide the line segment joining
A(2, -8) and
Reason (R): The points which divide AB in the ratio 1:3 and 3 : 1 are called points of
trisection of AB.
Answer : (c) Assertion (A): Let P and Q be the points which divide A(2, -8) and B(-3, -7)
into three equal parts.
So, Assertion (A) is true.
Reason (R): It is false to say that in trisection point,
point divide AB in the ratios 3:1 and 1:3.
Hence, Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.
Q 5. Assertion (A): The coordinates of the centroid of a triangle whose vertices are (0, 6),
(8,12) and (8,0),
Reason (R): Coordinates of the centroid of a triangle whose vertices are (x1,y1), (X2, y2)
and (x3, y3), are
Answer : (d) Assertion (A): The, coordinate of the centroid of a triangle with vertices (0.6).
(8, 12) and (8,0) are
Q.8. Assertion (A) : The value of y is 6, for which the distance between the points
P(2, –3) and Q(10, y) is 10.
Reason (R) : Distance between two given points A (x1, y1) and B (x2, y2) is given by
Answer : (d)
Q.9. Assertion (A) : Mid-point of a line segment divides line in the ratio 1 : 1.
Reason (R) : The ratio in which the point (–3, k) divides the line segment joining the
points (–5, 4) and (–2, 3) is 1 : 2.
Answer : (c)
