Problem-solving — Worked Solutions

1Problem 1
Answer
(a) 13\tfrac{1}{3} (b) y=13x+53y = \tfrac{1}{3}x + \tfrac{5}{3} (c) y=13xy = \tfrac{1}{3}x
Full working
(a) (4−1)/(7−(−2))=3/9=1/3(4-1)/(7-(-2)) = 3/9 = 1/3.

(b) Use A: 1=(1/3)(−2)+c⇒c=5/31 = (1/3)(-2) + c \Rightarrow c = 5/3. y=x/3+5/3y = x/3 + 5/3.

(c) Same gradient, through origin: y=x/3y = x/3.
2Problem 2
Answer
C=(4,3)C = (4, 3)
Full working
C is 2/3 from A to B. Cx=−2+(2/3)(9)=4C_x = -2 + (2/3)(9) = 4. Cy=1+(2/3)(3)=3C_y = 1 + (2/3)(3) = 3.

Verify: AC=36+4=40AC = \sqrt{36 + 4} = \sqrt{40}; CB=9+1=10CB = \sqrt{9 + 1} = \sqrt{10}. 40/10=2\sqrt{40}/\sqrt{10} = 2 ✓ (ratio 2:1).
3Problem 3
Answer
(a) 10 km (b) (6, 8) (c) y=−(4/3)x+16y = -(4/3)x + 16
Full working
(a) 64+36=10\sqrt{64 + 36} = 10 km.

(b) Midpoint (6, 8).

(c) AB gradient =6/8=3/4= 6/8 = 3/4. Perpendicular gradient −4/3-4/3. Through (6, 8): c=16c = 16.
4Problem 4
Answer
(a) P(3, 0), Q(7, 2), R(5, 5), S(1, 3) (b) PQ ∥ SR (gradient 1/2); QR ∥ PS (gradient −3/2-3/2)
Full working
(a) Compute each midpoint.

(b) PQ gradient = (2−0)/(7−3)=1/2(2-0)/(7-3) = 1/2. SR gradient = (5−3)/(5−1)=1/2(5-3)/(5-1) = 1/2. Equal → parallel. QR: −3/2-3/2; PS: −3/2-3/2. Both pairs parallel → parallelogram (Varignon's theorem).
5Problem 5
Answer
y=−x+7y = -x + 7
Full working
Midpoint (3, 4). AB gradient = 1. Perp gradient = −1-1. Through (3, 4): c=7c = 7.
6Problem 6
Answer
18
Full working
AB =16+9=5= \sqrt{16+9} = 5. BC =16+9=5= \sqrt{16+9} = 5. AC =8= 8. Perimeter = 18.

(Note: an isosceles triangle with the base on the xx-axis.)
7Problem 7
Answer
(a) y=−x/2+7/2y = -x/2 + 7/2 (b) F=(9/5,13/5)F = (9/5, 13/5) (c) 855\tfrac{8\sqrt{5}}{5}
Full working
(a) Perp gradient −1/2-1/2. c=7/2c = 7/2.

(b) Intersect: 2x−1=−x/2+7/2⇒5x=9⇒x=9/5,y=13/52x - 1 = -x/2 + 7/2 \Rightarrow 5x = 9 \Rightarrow x = 9/5, y = 13/5.

(c) Distance =(5−9/5)2+(1−13/5)2=(16/5)2+(−8/5)2=320/25=85/5= \sqrt{(5 - 9/5)^2 + (1 - 13/5)^2} = \sqrt{(16/5)^2 + (-8/5)^2} = \sqrt{320/25} = 8\sqrt{5}/5.
8Problem 8
Answer
(a) m=3/2m = 3/2 (b) m=(3±13)/2m = (3 \pm \sqrt{13})/2
Full working
(a) Parallel: m=3−m⇒m=3/2m = 3 - m \Rightarrow m = 3/2.

(b) Perp: m(3−m)=−1⇒m2−3m−1=0⇒m=(3±13)/2m(3 - m) = -1 \Rightarrow m^2 - 3m - 1 = 0 \Rightarrow m = (3 \pm \sqrt{13})/2.
9Problem 9
Answer
(a) (−1,0)(-1, 0), (5,0)(5, 0), (2,3)(2, 3) (b) 9
Full working
(a) y=x+1y = x+1 meets y=0y = 0 at (−1,0)(-1, 0). y=−x+5y = -x+5 meets y=0y = 0 at (5,0)(5, 0). y=x+1y = x+1 and y=−x+5y = -x+5: x+1=−x+5⇒x=2,y=3x + 1 = -x + 5 \Rightarrow x = 2, y = 3.

(b) Base 6 (from −1-1 to 55 on xx-axis), height 3. Area =9= 9.
10Problem 10
Answer
AB ∥ DC (both horizontal). AD ∥ BC (gradient 3/2)
Full working
AB gradient = 0; DC gradient = 0. AD: (4−1)/(3−1)=3/2(4-1)/(3-1) = 3/2. BC: (4−1)/(6−4)=3/2(4-1)/(6-4) = 3/2. Both pairs parallel → parallelogram.
11Problem 11
Answer
(a) (3, 2) (b) See working
Full working
(a) Centroid = ((0+6+3)/3,(0+0+6)/3)=(3,2)((0+6+3)/3, (0+0+6)/3) = (3, 2).

(b) Medians from each vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side:
- From A to (4.5, 3): line y=(2/3)xy = (2/3)x. At (3, 2): y=2y = 2 ✓.
- From B to (1.5, 3): direction (-4.5, 3). Equation passes through (3, 2)?
- From C to (3, 0): vertical line x=3x = 3 passes through (3, 2) ✓.

All three medians intersect at the centroid (3, 2).
12Problem 12
Answer
(a) y=−2x−1y = -2x - 1 (b) y=−2x+1y = -2x + 1
Full working
(a) Reflection in xx-axis: y→−yy \to -y. So −y=2x+1⇒y=−2x−1-y = 2x + 1 \Rightarrow y = -2x - 1.

(b) Reflection in yy-axis: x→−xx \to -x. y=2(−x)+1=−2x+1y = 2(-x) + 1 = -2x + 1.
