A) \[25\]
B) \[5\sqrt{34}\]
C) \[25\sqrt{2}\]
D) \[5\sqrt{26}\]
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Given points are \[A(8,\,\,10)\] and \[B(18,\,20)\]. M is the mid-point of AB. Coordinates of \[M=\left( \frac{8+18}{2}.\frac{10+20}{2} \right)=(13,15)\] Point Q divides AB externally in the ration of \[2:3\] Day The coordinates of Q \[=\left( \frac{2\times 18-3\times 8}{2-3},\,\frac{2\times 20-3\times 10}{2-3} \right)\] \[=\left( \frac{36-24}{-1},\frac{40-30}{-1} \right)\] \[=(-12,\,-10)\] Now, length \[MQ=\sqrt{{{(13+12)}^{2}}+{{(15+10)}^{2}}}\] \[\sqrt{{{(25)}^{2}}+{{(25)}^{2}}}\] \[\sqrt{2\times {{(25)}^{2}}}\] \[=25\sqrt{2}\]You need to login to perform this action.
