Q3 of 157 Page 760

The point on x-axis which is equidistant from points A(-1, 0) and B(5, 0) is

⇒ For the point to be equidistant, the point has to be the midpoint of the line joining the points A and B.


⇒ If P(x, y) is the midpoint of the line joining AB then By Midpoint Formula we have,


⇒ and y


Finding x co-ordinate of midpoint:


⇒


⇒


⇒ x = 2


Finding y- co-ordinate of midpoint:


⇒


⇒ y = 0


Therefore the point which is equidistant from A and B is P(2,0).
