Solution

Same Side of a Line — Geometric Condition

Line: \( x + y - 1 = 0 \)
Point 1: (3, 2) → Lies on the side where value is positive:
\[ f(3, 2) = 3 + 2 - 1 = 4 > 0 \]

Point 2: \( (\cos\theta, \sin\theta) \) lies on same side if: \[ \cos\theta + \sin\theta > 1 \] Using identity: \[ \cos\theta + \sin\theta = \sqrt{2} \sin\left(\theta + \frac{\pi}{4}\right) \Rightarrow \sin\left(\theta + \frac{\pi}{4}\right) > \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \] So: \[ \theta \in \left(0,\ \frac{\pi}{2}\right) \]

✅ Final Answer: \( \boxed{\theta \in \left(0,\ \frac{\pi}{2}\right)} \)

Solution

Given: Points: \( P(1, 4) \), \( Q(k, 3) \)

Step 1: Find midpoint of PQ

Midpoint = \( \left( \dfrac{1 + k}{2}, \dfrac{4 + 3}{2} \right) = \left( \dfrac{1 + k}{2}, \dfrac{7}{2} \right) \)

Step 2: Find slope of PQ

Slope of PQ = \( \dfrac{3 - 4}{k - 1} = \dfrac{-1}{k - 1} \)

Step 3: Slope of perpendicular bisector = negative reciprocal = \( k - 1 \)

Step 4: Use point-slope form for perpendicular bisector:

\( y - \dfrac{7}{2} = (k - 1)\left(x - \dfrac{1 + k}{2}\right) \)

Step 5: Find y-intercept (put \( x = 0 \))

\( y = \dfrac{7}{2} + (k - 1)\left( -\dfrac{1 + k}{2} \right) \)

\( y = \dfrac{7}{2} - (k - 1)\left( \dfrac{1 + k}{2} \right) \)

Given: y-intercept = -4, so:

\( \dfrac{7}{2} - \dfrac{(k - 1)(k + 1)}{2} = -4 \)

Multiply both sides by 2:

\( 7 - (k^2 - 1) = -8 \Rightarrow 7 - k^2 + 1 = -8 \Rightarrow 8 - k^2 = -8 \)

\( \Rightarrow k^2 = 16 \Rightarrow k = \pm4 \)

✅ Final Answer: $\boxed{k = -4 \text{ or } 4}$

Solution

Given:

Points: \( A = (1, \frac{1}{2}) \), \( B = (3, -\frac{1}{2}) \)

Line: \( 2x + 3y = k \)

Step 1: Evaluate \( 2x + 3y \)

For A: \( 2(1) + 3\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = \frac{7}{2} \)
For B: \( 2(3) + 3\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right) = \frac{9}{2} \)

✅ Option-wise Check:

  • In between the lines \( 2x + 3y = -6 \) and \( 2x + 3y = 6 \): ✔️ True since \( \frac{7}{2}, \frac{9}{2} \in (-6, 6) \)
  • On the same side of \( 2x + 3y = 6 \): ✔️ True, both values are less than 6
  • On the same side of \( 2x + 3y = -6 \): ✔️ True, both values are greater than -6
  • On the opposite side of \( 2x + 3y = -6 \): ❌ False, both are on the same side

✅ Final Answer:

The correct statements are:

  1. In between the lines \( 2x + 3y = -6 \) and \( 2x + 3y = 6 \)
  2. On the same side of the line \( 2x + 3y = 6 \)
  3. On the same side of the line \( 2x + 3y = -6 \)
