The correct Answer is:
D
`P(-3,0), Q(0,3t), R(-1,2t)` Let the mid point of RN be (h,k) `:. k = t`. `RN _|_ PQ rArr (2t)/(-2h-2) xx (3t)/(3) =-1` `rArr 2t^(2)=2h +2` `rArr t^(2)=h+1` `rArr k^(2)=h +1`
Let A be a fixed point (0,6) and B be a moving point (2t,0). Let M be the mid-point of AB and the perpendicular bisector of AB meets the y-axis at C. The locus of the mid-point P of MC is :
let P be the point (1,0) and Q be a point on the locus y^(2)=8x. The locus of the midpoint of PQ is
Q is any point on the circle x^(2) +y^(2) = 9. QN is perpendicular from Q to the x-axis. Locus of the point of trisection of QN is
Let A3(0,4) and Bs(21,0)in R. Let the perpendicular bisector of AB at M meet the y- axis at R. Then the locus of midpoint P of MR is y=x^(2)+21
The tangent at any point P on y^(2)=4x meets x-axis at Q, then locus of mid point of PQ will be
Let coordinates of the points A and B are (5, 0 ) and (0, 7) respectively. P and Q are the variable points lying on the x- and y-axis respectively so that PQ is always perpendicular to the line AB. Then locus of the point of intersection of BP and AQ is
A variable tangent to the parabola y^(2)=4ax meets the parabola y^(2)=-4ax P and Q. The locus of the mid-point of PQ, is
