Answer:
Given three vertices of a rectangle are A (2, -1), B (2, 7) and C (4, 7)
From graph the co-ordinates of the fourth vertex D (4, -1)
(i) mid-point of BC is (3, 7)
(ii) mid-point of CD is (4, 3)
(iii) The point of intersection of the diagonals (3, 3). Area of rectangle ABCD = AB × BC = 8 × 2 sq. units = 16 sq. units.

Question 2.
Three vertices of a parallelogram are A (3, 5), B (3, -1) and C (-1, -3). Plot these points on a graph paper and hence use it to find the coordinates of the fourth vertex D. Also find the coordinates of the mid-point of the side CD. Waht is the area of the parallelogram?
Answer:
The vertices A, B and C of parallelogram are A (3, 5), B (3, -1) and C (-1,-3)
D is the fourth vertex of the parallelogram which is (-1, 3)
E is the mid-piont of CD whose coordinates are (-1, 0)

Let abscissa (x) = x
Then distance between the two ends (-2, 3)
ML Aggarwal Class 9 Solutions for ICSE Maths Chapter 19 Coordinate Geometry Chapter Test img-25
⇒ x2 + 4x + 4 + 36 = 100
⇒ x2 + 4x = 100 – 36 – 4 = 60
⇒ x2 + 4x – 60 = 0
⇒ x2 + 10x – 6x – 60 = 0
⇒ x(x + 10) – 6(x + 10) = 0
⇒ (x+ 10) (x – 6) = 0
Either x + 10 = 0, then x = -10
or x – 6 = 0, then x = 6
∴ Abscissa will be -10 or 6

Question 11.

Solution:
A (-4, -1), B (-1, 2) and C (a, 5) are vertices of an isosceles triangle. AB is the unequal side.
∴ AC = BC
ML Aggarwal Class 9 Solutions for ICSE Maths Chapter 19 Coordinate Geometry Chapter Test img-26
ML Aggarwal Class 9 Solutions for ICSE Maths Chapter 19 Coordinate Geometry Chapter Test img-27
Squaring both sides,
(α + 4)2 + 36 = (α + 1)2 + 9
a2 + 8α + 16 + 36 = α2 + 2α + 1 + 9
8α – 2α = 1 + 9 – 16 – 36
6α = -42 ⇒ α = \(\frac{-42}{6}\) = -7
∴ α = -7

Question 12.
If A (-3, 2), B (α, β) and C (-1, 4) are the vertices of an isosceles triangle, prove that α + β = 1, given AB = BC.
Solution:
A (-3, 2), B (α, β) and C (-1, 4) are the value of an isosceles triangle AB = BC
ML Aggarwal Class 9 Solutions for ICSE Maths Chapter 19 Coordinate Geometry Chapter Test img-28
Squaring both sides,
(α + 3)2 + (β – 2)2 = (α + 1) + (β – 4)2
⇒ α2 + 6α + 9 + β2 – 4β + 4 = α2 + 2α + 1 + β2 – 8β + 16
6α – 2α – 4β + 8β = 16 – 9 – 4 + 1
4α + 4β = 4 ⇒ α + β = 1 (dividing by 4)
Hence α + β = 1

Question 15.
The ends of a diagonal of a square have co-ordinates (-2, p) and (p, 2). Find p if the area of the square is 40 sq. units.
Solution:
Ends of a diagonal of a square are (-2, p) and (p, 2)
Area of square = 40 sq. units
∴ Side = \( \sqrt40 \) units = 2\( \sqrt10 \) units
and diagonal = \( \sqrt2 \) × side
= \( \sqrt2 \) × \( \sqrt40 \) = \( \sqrt80 \) = 4\( \sqrt5 \) unit
Diagonal = AC = \(\sqrt{\left(x_{2}-x_{1}\right)^{2} \times\left(y_{2}-y_{1}\right)^{2}}\)
= \(\sqrt{(p+2)^{2}+(2-p)^{2}}=4 \sqrt{5}\)
Squaring both side,
(p + 2)2 + (2 – p)2 = 16 × 5 = 80
⇒ p22 + 4p + 4 + 4 – 4p + p2 = 80
⇒ 2p2 + 8 = 80 ⇒ 2p2 = 80 – 8 = 72
⇒ p2 = \(\frac{72}{2}\) = 36 = (±6)2
∴ p = ±6
∴ P = 6, -6

Question 17.
Find the coordinates of the centre of the circle passing through the three given points A (5, 1), B (-3, -7) and C (7, -1).
Solution:
Let coordinates of the centre of the circle be (x, y)
Points A (5, 1), B (-3, -7) and C (7, -1) are on the circle
∴ OA = OB = OC
ML Aggarwal Class 9 Solutions for ICSE Maths Chapter 19 Coordinate Geometry Chapter Test img-38
OA2 = OB2 and OA2 = OC2
∴ (x – 5)2 + (y – 1)2 = (x + 3)2 + (y + 7)2
⇒ x2 – 10x + 25 + y2 – 2y + 1 = x2 + 6x + 9 + y2 + 14y + 49
⇒ 6x + 14y+ 10x + 2y = -9 – 49 + 25 + 1
⇒ 16x + 16y = -32
⇒ x + y = -2
⇒ x = -2 – y …(i)
Now OA2 = OC2
(x – 5)2 + (y – 1)2 = (x – 7)2 + (y + 1)2
⇒ x2 – 10x + 25 + y2 – 2y + 1 = x2 – 14x + 49 + y2 + 1 + 2y
⇒ -10x + 14x – 2y – 2y = 49 + 1 – 25 – 1
⇒ 4x – 4y = 24
⇒ x – y = 6 …(ii)
(Taking 4 common)
Now substitute the value of (i) in (ii), we get
⇒ (-2 – y) – y = 6
⇒ -2 – y – y = 6
⇒ -2y = 6 + 2 ⇒ y = \(\frac{-8}{2}\) ⇒ y = -4
Now put the value of y = -4 in equation (i)
x = -2 – 7 = -2 – (-4)
= -2 + 4 = 2
∴ The coordinates of the centre of the circle are (2, -4)
