Three points will from: (i) A right angle triangle, if sum of the squares of any two sides is equal to square of third side. (ii) An equilateral triangle, if all the three sides are equal. (iii) An isosceles triangle, if any two sides are equal. (iv) A collinear or a line, if sum of two sides is equal to third side. For example: Prove that the points (–3, 0), (1, –3) and (4, 1) are the vertices of an isosceles right- angled triangle. Let A(–3, 0), B(1, –3) and C(4, 1) be the given points.

Four points will form: (i) A rhombus, if all the four sides are equal. (ii) A square, if all the four sides and diagonals are equal. (iii) A parallelogram, if opposite sides are equal and diagonals bisect each other. (iv) A rectangle, if opposite sides and diagonals are equal. For example: Show that four points (0, –1), (8, 3), (6, 7) and (−2, 3) are the vertices of a rectangle. Let A(0 –1), B(6, 7), C(–2, 3) and D(8, 3) be the given points.

Find the coordinates of B. In the figure A(4, –1) and B(a, b) are the end points of the given diameter AB, and C(1, –3) is the centre of the circle. Then, C is the midpoint of AB. By the midpoint formula, the coordinates of C are    2 2 But, the coordinates of C are given as (1, –3). 1 and 1 2  4 + a = 2 and –1 + b = –6  a = –2 and b = –5 Hence, the required point is B(–2, –5).

Area of triangle:  Area of ABC , whose vertices are , and is A ( x 1y , ) B ( x 2y , ) C ( x 3y , ) 1 2 3 1 − + − + − = x ( y y ) x ( y y ) x ( y y ) 1 2 3 2 3 1 3 1 2 2 For example: Find the area of a triangle whose vertices are (1, –1), (–4, 6) and (–3, –5). The area of the triangle formed by the vertices A(1, –1), B(–4, 6) and C(–3, –5) is given by 1 1 + + − − + + − − − + + = = ( 1 [ 2 6 5 ) ( 4 )( 5 ) 1 ( 3 )( 1 6 )] 11 ( 16 21 ) 24 2 6. So, the area of the triangle is 24 square units. Condition for collinear points Three points of the following holds: and are collinear or lie on a line if any one A ( x , y ), B ( x , y ) C ( x 3y , ) 1 1 2 2 3 + = AB BC AC (i) + = AC CB AB (ii) + = CA AB CB (iii) For example: Show that the points (1, –1), (5, 2) and (9, 5) are collinear. Let A(1, – 1), B(5, 2) and (9, 5) be the given points. Then, we have 2 2 = ) 1 − + + = + = AB ( 5 ( 2 ) 1 16 9 5 2 2 = − + − = + = BC ( 5 9 ) ( 2 5 ) 16 9 5 2 2 = − + − − = + = and AC 1 ( 9 ) ( 1 5 ) 64 36 10 Clearly, AC = AB + BC Hence, A, B, C are collinear points. (iv) If we have to show that three given points are collinear using area of a triangle, then the area of triangle formed by them is 0. 1 − + − + − = | x ( y y ) x ( y y ) x ( y y | ) 2 0 1 2 3 2 3 1 3 1 2 For example: Find the value of k if the points A(2, 3), B(4, k) and C(6, –3) are collinear. Since the given points are collinear, the area of the triangle will be 0, https://www.entrancei.com/ncert-solutions-class-10-maths

For example: If A(–5, 7), B(–4, –5), C(–1, –6) and D(4, 5) are the vertices of a quadrilateral, find the area of the quadrilateral ABCD. By joining B to D, two triangles ABD and BCD are formed. D(4, 5) C(–1, –6) Now the area of ABD 1 ( 5 − − − + − − + + = [ 5 5 ) ( 4 )( 5 7 ) ( 4 7 5 )] 2 A(–5,7) B(–4, –5) 1 106 + + = = = square units ( 50 8 48 ) 53 2 2 Also, the area of BCD 1 ( 4 − − − − + + − + = [ 6 5 ) ( 1 5 5 ) ( 4 5 6 )] 2 1 − + = = square units ( 44 10 4 ) 19 2 So, the area of quadrilateral ABCD = 53 + 19 = 72 square units. • If in question, it is given that the area of a triangle is A square units and we have to find some condition, then we must take two cases as A after removing the modulus sign from the formula of area of triangle. For example: Find thevalue of k for which the area formed by the triangle with vertices ( ) ( ) 6 , 2 , 2 , − B k k A ) 1 , 3 C is 5 square units. and ( The vertices of the given ABC are ( ) ( , B ) and ( ) 1 , 3 6 , 2 − .

Their point of concurrence is called the centroid. It divides each median in the ratio 2 : 1.
