    Locus of the points equidistant from the points \[(-1,\,\,2)\] and (3, 4) is

    A)  \[2x+y-5=0\]

    B)  \[2x+y+10=0\]

    C)  \[2x-y-10=0\]

    D)  \[2x-y+10=0\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] Let \[A\,(-1,\,\,2)\] and \[B\,(3,\,\,4)\] and \[p\,(x-y)\]be such that
    \[P{{A}^{2}}=P{{B}^{2}}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[{{(x+1)}^{2}}+{{(y-2)}^{2}}={{(x-3)}^{2}}+{{(y-4)}^{2}}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{x}^{2}}+1+2x+{{y}^{2}}+4-4y={{x}^{2}}+9-6x\]
                                        \[+\,{{y}^{2}}+16-8y\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[2x+5-4y=-\,6x-8y+25\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[8x+4y-20=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[2x+y-5=0\]
