  • <em><u>Given </u></em><em><u>-</u></em><em><u> </u></em> two points A( 1 , y ) and B( 5 , 2) ; Distance between A and B = 5 units

  • <em><u>To </u></em><em><u>find </u></em><em><u>-</u></em><em><u> </u></em> possible coordinates of A

Using Distance formula ,

\bold{d(AB) =  \sqrt{ (x_{2} -  x_{1}) {}^{2}  + ( y_{2} -  y_{1}) {}^{2}   } }\\ \\\bold{5 =  \sqrt{(5 - 1) {}^{2}  + (2 - y) {}^{2} }}  \\ \\\bold\blue{  squaring \: both \: sides\:,} \\  \\\bold{ 25 = (5 - 1) {}^{2}  + (2 - y) {}^{2} }\\ \\\bold{ 25 = (4) {}^{2}  + (4 + y {}^{2}  - 4y)}\\ \\ \bold{25 = 16 + y {}^{2}  - 4y + 4}\\ \\ \bold{25 = y {}^{2}  - 4y + 20}\\ \\\bold{ y {}^{2}  - 4y - 5 = 0}\\ \\\bold{ y {}^{2}  - 5y + y - 5 = 0} \\\\\bold{ y(y - 5) + 1(y - 5) = 0}\\ \\\bold{ (y + 1)(y - 5) = 0 }\\\\\bold{ y =  - 1 \: or \:  y = + 5}

therefore ,

possible coordinates of A are either ( 1 , -1 ) or ( 1 , 5 )

hope helpful~
