WORKSHEET - 4
Topic: Locus Problems based on co-ordinates

SUBJECTIVE TYPE:
1. Given points A (1, 2) and B (5, 2). Find length of locus of point P if APB = 450

2. Find locus of point (at2, 2at) where t is a parameter.

ONLY ONE OPTION CORRECT TYPE:

3. If A(2,4) and B(6,10) are two fixed points and a point P moves so that APB is always a right angle,
then the locus of P is
(A) x2 + y2 + 8x + 14y + 52 = 0 (B) x2 + y2 – 8x + 14y – 52 = 0
(C) x2 + y2 + 8x – 14y + 52 = 0 (D) x2 + y2 – 8x – 14y + 52 = 0

4. Equation of the locus of the centroid of the triangle whose vertices are (acosk, a sink),
(bsink, – bcosk) and (1,0) , where k is a parameter, is
(A) (1 – 3x)2 + 9y2 = a2 + b2 (B) (3x – 1)2 + 9y2 = 2a2 + 2b2
(C) (3x + 1)2 + (3y)2 = a2 + b2 (D) (3x + 1)2 + (3y)2 = 3a2 + 3b2

5. Let A(5,12) , B (–13 cos, 13 sin) and C(13 sin, –13 cos) are angular points of ABC where  
R. The locus of orthocentre of ABC is
(A) x – y + 7 = 0 (B) x – y – 7 = 0 (C) x + y – 7 = 0 (D) x + y + 7 = 0
