- 0:08Assalamu Alaikum, son. In the last
- 0:13class, we used mensuration to find the
- 0:17area of 2D shapes. I did not explain it
- 0:21in the last class. Now, we will
- 0:23continue from there. There was a
- 0:25mathematician named Heron. Heron
- 0:27derived a new alternate method to find
- 0:29the area of polygons like squares,
- 0:31rhombuses, rectangles, parallelograms,
- 0:34trapeziums, kites, isosceles,
- 0:36right-angled, and equilateral triangles
- 0:38. To find the area of all these, he
- 0:41derived a new alternate method. Okay?
- 0:43That alternate method is area using
- 0:46coordinates. We read this formula in
- 0:48the language of mathematics. Heron's
- 0:50formula. Heron's formula. Okay? Now
- 0:53look, son, what is Heron's formula? I
- 0:56will guide you slowly. See, the first
- 0:58thing is that whenever we talk about
- 1:00Heron's formula, today we will discuss
- 1:02Heron's formula. Okay? This was a
- 1:04mathematician whose name was Heron.
- 1:07Okay? So now, what is Heron's formula?
- 1:11In Heron's formula, you don't have to
- 1:14use mensuration. What do you do in
- 1:16Heron's formula? You find the area in
- 1:19Heron's formula. Of a polygon. You find
- 1:23the area of a polygon. But with the
- 1:25help of what? You find the area with
- 1:28the help of coordinates. And what is
- 1:30the name of our topic? The name of our
- 1:32topic is Coordinate Geometry. So Heron
- 1:35said that the area of any shape can be
- 1:37found if you have the coordinates of
- 1:40that shape. Okay? This was new work
- 1:42done by Heron. Alright, now I will
- 1:44explain. By the way, the polygons in
- 1:49our syllabus are of only two types:
- 1:51either polygons with three sides or
- 1:54polygons with four sides. Meaning, in
- 1:58AS Math, you will find two types of
- 2:00polygons. Meaning, you will find
- 2:02triangles of any type—equilateral,
- 2:04right-angled, isosceles, acute, obtuse
- 2:06—any type of triangle, okay son? Even
- 2:09if it's a right-angled one. And
- 2:11quadrilaterals, meaning squares,
- 2:13rhombuses, rectangles, trapeziums,
- 2:15parallelograms, and kites. This is our
- 2:17syllabus. Now look, what work did Heron
- 2:21do? Obviously, we know that when there
- 2:24are three sides, it means triangles,
- 2:27and four sides means quads.
- 2:29Quadrilaterals. Okay, son?
- 2:31Quadrilaterals. So this is our syllabus
- 2:34. Heron derived a new formula to find
- 2:36the area. Okay? Now, first of all, you
- 2:40need to keep two directions in mind.
- 2:42Then I will start the topic for you. We
- 2:45must have studied two directions in
- 2:47O-Level Math. There was a topic,
- 2:48transformations, in O-Level Math. We
- 2:50must have heard this word there too.
- 2:52There are two types of directions in
- 2:53math. One direction we read as
- 2:56anti-clockwise direction.
- 2:58Anti-clockwise direction. We used to
- 3:01hear the word anti-clockwise direction
- 3:03in rotation. And we used to hear
- 3:05another direction, clockwise direction.
- 3:08So, we must have a sense of these two
- 3:10directions for Heron's formula. Right?
- 3:12So, there are two types of directions.
- 3:14One is anti-clockwise and the other is
- 3:16clockwise direction. Now look, we must
- 3:19have studied in O-Level Math what an
- 3:21anti-clockwise direction is.
- 3:23Anti-clockwise direction is called the
- 3:25upward direction. Look here, the one I
- 3:27am marking with an arrow to show you.
- 3:29The direction I am marking to show you.
- 3:31This anti-clockwise direction, we call
- 3:33it the upward direction. Upward
- 3:35direction. So, we used to say in
- 3:37O-Level Math, "Which direction is this?
- 3:39" This is an anti-clockwise direction.
- 3:42What does anti-clockwise direction mean
- 3:45? Upward direction. Upward direction.
- 3:49Right? Anti-clockwise means upward
- 3:52direction. When you move in an upward
- 3:55direction, you say in math language, "
- 3:58What direction is this?" This is an
- 3:59anti-clockwise direction. Okay, son?
- 4:02These are very basic things I am
- 4:03starting with. Then we used to hear
- 4:06another word, clockwise direction. Now,
- 4:08what did clockwise direction mean?
- 4:10Clockwise direction meant downward
- 4:12direction. Look, this direction we used
- 4:15to call clockwise direction in math
- 4:18language. Right? Then I will start the
- 4:21topic slowly. We used to say in math
- 4:23language, "What direction is this?"
- 4:26This direction is the clockwise
- 4:27direction. We used to call it simple
- 4:30downward direction in plain language.
- 4:32Clear, son? We used to call clockwise
- 4:35direction simple downward direction in
- 4:36plain language. Now, use whichever word
- 4:39you want, clockwise or downward
- 4:41direction. Let me mark it here. We used
- 4:44to call clockwise the downward
- 4:45direction. Right? Upward direction and
- 4:49downward direction. Upward direction
- 4:52and downward direction. We used to call
- 4:55these basic directions. Now look,
- 4:58whenever Heron's formula is applied,
- 5:01you will see a sign; in math language,
- 5:04that sign is called a modulus sign,
- 5:07though it is also called an absolute
- 5:09sign. You will use a modulus sign; why
- 5:13you use it, I will explain. Modulus
- 5:15signs are these kinds of signs. We call
- 5:17this sign a modulus sign. Meaning a
- 5:19pair of parallel vertical lines. These
- 5:21are shown as a pair of parallel
- 5:23vertical lines like this. We call this
- 5:25sign a modulus sign in math. What is
- 5:27the property of the modulus sign? You
- 5:30will also study the modulus sign in P3
- 5:31under the topic of modulus functions.
- 5:33The property of the modulus is that
- 5:36whether you put a plus or a minus
- 5:39inside the modulus. Meaning, whether
- 5:41the input is positive or negative.
- 5:43Whatever the input may be. Math states
- 5:45that whenever you apply a modulus
- 5:47function, the output is always positive
- 5:49. It means whatever the input is,
- 5:52whatever the input is. Okay, whether
- 5:55the input is plus or minus, but what
- 5:58the modulus does is, it always shows a
- 6:00positive output. It always shows a
- 6:03positive output, so whenever you apply
- 6:05the (Harris) formula, the modulus sign
- 6:07will be used in it. The modulus sign is
- 6:10used because area is always positive.
- 6:14We already know that area, volume,
- 6:16perimeter, and length are always
- 6:18positive, so which sign will be used in
- 6:20this formula? Always? Modulus. Meaning
- 6:23the result is always positive. So,
- 6:26whenever we find the area of any shape,
- 6:28whether it's a square, rhombus,
- 6:29rectangle, trapezium, parallelogram, or
- 6:31kite, the area is always positive. That
- 6:34is why we use the modulus sign in the
- 6:37Harris formula. Modulus sign. I will
- 6:40explain this in more detail now. Is it
- 6:42clear, son? Modulus sign. Now, the
- 6:44question is, what is the Harris formula
- 6:46? Or how do we apply it? For the Harris
- 6:49formula, you only need to have the
- 6:51coordinates. The Harris formula has no
- 6:54interest in the shape. Meaning, if you
- 6:58are given those four points, you can
- 6:59find the area with the help of those
- 7:01four points. Those four points may
- 7:04belong to a square, a rhombus, a
- 7:06rectangle, a kite, or a trapezium. So,
- 7:09the Harris formula is dependent on the
- 7:11coordinates. It is not dependent on the
- 7:13shape. Now, let me show you a simple
- 7:15example. Let's suppose you have this
- 7:18triangle. Just a random example, I just
- 7:21plotted a triangle like this. Without
- 7:23thinking, I don't know what type of
- 7:25triangle this is. Okay, let's say I
- 7:27just marked a triangle randomly. I
- 7:29don't know if it's isosceles or
- 7:30equilateral. What kind of triangle it
- 7:32is. I don't know anything. I just
- 7:34marked a triangle randomly. Suppose
- 7:36this point here is this point. Its
- 7:39coordinates are x1, y1, and this is
- 7:41another point. Its coordinates are x2,
- 7:44y2, and there is one more point. Its
- 7:46coordinates are x3, y3, here it is. I
- 7:48need the area of this triangle. Now,
- 7:51when mensuration is applied, you first
- 7:53have to check what type of triangle it
- 7:56is. It's a right angle, equilateral,
- 7:58isosceles, or a right angle triangle.
- 8:00Then it is treated accordingly. Like
- 8:03right angle is 1/2*base*height,
- 8:05non-right angle is 1/2 ab sin c, but in
- 8:07Heron's formula there is no such
- 8:09complication. In Heron's formula, you
- 8:11just need the coordinates. The area
- 8:13will be found out by itself. Now, what
- 8:15does Heron's formula say? First, look
- 8:17at Heron's formula. Then, obviously, I
- 8:19will show you the entire working. First
- 8:21, just take two minutes to see what new
- 8:24thing Heron explained. Okay? What is
- 8:27this Heron's formula? First, just look
- 8:29at Heron's formula for two minutes.
- 8:32Then, God willing, I will guide you on
- 8:33how it is applied. If you want to apply
- 8:36Heron's formula, then take a look at
- 8:38what Heron's method is. Heron's method
- 8:40was this. First, you copy half. Then
- 8:42you copy the sign, the modulus sign.
- 8:45Modulus. The name of this sign is the
- 8:47modulus sign. Now, Heron's formula says
- 8:49that you can start from any point,
- 8:51anywhere. But you must follow either
- 8:53the counter-clockwise direction. Or you
- 8:56follow the clockwise direction. Heron's
- 8:58formula says you just have to follow a
- 9:01direction. How? Suppose I started from
- 9:04here. I started from A. I am starting
- 9:06the area from this point A. Is it clear
- 9:08, son? So Heron's formula is applied
- 9:10like this. What are the coordinates of
- 9:12A? First of all, look at the
- 9:14coordinates of A. The coordinates of A
- 9:16are X1, Y1. Who is the next point after
- 9:19A? B and then C. Then you copy the
- 9:22coordinates of B. x2, y2, then you copy
- 9:25the coordinates of C, x3, y3, and then
- 9:28you will end exactly where your area
- 9:31started (1, 2) 3. That is, Heron's
- 9:34formula says that where your area
- 9:36starts, your area must end there. So
- 9:39that means, where will your area end?
- 9:41At x1, y1. So if you notice, which
- 9:44direction did I follow? I followed the
- 9:46counter-clockwise direction, meaning I
- 9:48explained the upward direction to you.
- 9:50Upward, now this can also happen. There
- 9:53are multiple options in this. The
- 9:54interesting thing is the result will be
- 9:56the same for everyone. It will be 100%
- 9:58the same. You can start from anywhere.
- 10:00Just follow any one direction. If I
- 10:03tell you, "Buddy, I will start from B."
- 10:05Here you go. So if I start from B, then
- 10:07what is my first point? My first point
- 10:09is X2, Y2. Meaning, this time I am
- 10:12starting from B in a counter-clockwise
- 10:14direction. Then the next point becomes
- 10:16C. Here is X3 Y3. Then what is the next
- 10:18point? X1 Y1 and then where does it
- 10:20always end? Where you started from. So
- 10:23remember, it must end at the same point
- 10:26it started. It must end at the same
- 10:28point it started. Now, which direction
- 10:30did I follow in both cases?
- 10:32Anticlockwise. Anticlockwise. If you
- 10:35start from C, then A will come, then B,
- 10:38and back to C. Meaning, Heron's formula
- 10:40will end exactly where it started. The
- 10:44rule is that your movement condition
- 10:46must be cyclic. It should be in a
- 10:48sequence. Look, now I will change it
- 10:51intentionally. I will show it like this
- 10:53. Look, I am changing the direction.
- 10:56Now I will consider a question in
- 10:58clockwise. Here, I am considering the
- 11:00question clockwise. I started from A.
- 11:02If I start from A, then I will end at
- 11:05A. So look, what did I do? Copied it.
- 11:08First, I copied it. My first point is A
- 11:11, X1 Y1. Then what is my next point? X3
- 11:15Y3, then what is my next point? X2 Y2,
- 11:18and then what will be my last point? X1
- 11:21Y1, so in Heron's formula, the area
- 11:24will end exactly at the point it
- 11:27started. I will show the entire proper
- 11:30working now. I will show it by
- 11:31expanding it. I will show it by
- 11:33applying it. Right now, I am just
- 11:35giving you an idea. An idea. Okay?
- 11:37First, grasp the concept. Then, God
- 11:39willing, we will start its practice.
- 11:40Look, I am changing it again. I am
- 11:43changing it again. Well, the
- 11:45interesting thing is, even if a student
- 11:47doesn't have a sense of direction, the
- 11:48answer will still be correct. Because
- 11:51if you consider a triangle, which is a
- 11:54special case, whether you do ACB, ABC,
- 11:56or BAC, the result will be the same;
- 11:59but if you don't have a sense of
- 12:01sequence in a quadrilateral, the answer
- 12:04will be 100%wrong. Now, suppose I start
- 12:07from here. I start from C. Here, I am
- 12:09moving in a clockwise direction again.
- 12:12I started from C. What are C's
- 12:14coordinates? C's coordinates are X3 Y3.
- 12:17What are C's coordinates? X3 Y3, then I
- 12:20put B X2 Y2, then I saw X1 Y1, and then
- 12:23where did I end? Where I started from,
- 12:27X3 Y3. So, the rule is that it must end
- 12:30exactly at the point it started. See,
- 12:33in every question, it will end exactly
- 12:36where it started. So, in Heron's
- 12:38formula, you either follow an
- 12:40anti-clockwise, meaning upward, or a
- 12:42downward direction. After two minutes,
- 12:44I will show you an example of this.
- 12:46Then, God willing, I will also show you
- 12:47questions from past papers. So, what is
- 12:49the name of this sign? The name of this
- 12:51sign is modulus. Whether the sign
- 12:52inside is plus, or the result inside is
- 12:54plus or minus. What will the result
- 12:56always be? Positive. Meaning, whatever
- 12:59your input inside the bracket is,
- 13:01whether it's plus or minus. The result
- 13:03is always positive. Because we know
- 13:05that area is always positive. Area is
- 13:07always positive. Now, let me do one
- 13:09thing. I will show you a quadrilateral.
- 13:12Whether the quadrilateral is a square,
- 13:14rhombus, rectangle, trapezium,
- 13:16parallelogram, or kite. The result will
- 13:18be the same. Look at this. I'll
- 13:20randomly sketch a quadrilateral for you
- 13:22like this. Just random. Okay? I don't
- 13:26know what shape the quadrilateral is. I
- 13:27can take any quadrilateral. Obviously,
- 13:30every quadrilateral will mean there are
- 13:32four points in every quadrilateral. Now
- 13:35, whatever the quadrilateral may be. I
- 13:37am saying repeatedly that Heron's
- 13:38formula is not dependent on the shape.
- 13:40Okay, son? Heron's formula does not
- 13:41depend on the shape at all. I just
- 13:43plotted a shape randomly like this.
- 13:45Well, an interesting thing could also
- 13:47be that you might not even know the
- 13:48name of that four-sided shape. Clear,
- 13:51son? Okay? It is possible that you
- 13:53don't even know the name of the shape.
- 13:55Okay? Let me repeat what I said.
- 13:57Suppose I just plotted a shape randomly
- 13:59like this. This is x1 y1. Okay? This
- 14:02point is x2 y2. After this, I will now
- 14:05tell you its proper working. This point
- 14:08is suppose x3 y3. Suppose this point is
- 14:11x3 y3 and this point is suppose x4 y4
- 14:13for you. Okay? This point is suppose x4
- 14:17y4 for you, here you go. This is x4 y4,
- 14:20here you go. I just plotted a
- 14:22quadrilateral randomly like this. Now
- 14:24that quadrilateral in the exam can be
- 14:26anything. Square, rhombus, rectangle,
- 14:28trapezium, parallelogram, kite. Now if
- 14:31I apply Heron's formula, I have
- 14:33multiple options. If I follow an
- 14:35anti-clockwise direction, I can start
- 14:37from A as well. From B, from C, from D,
- 14:40from anywhere. If I tell you that, look
- 14:42, I am following an anti-clockwise
- 14:44direction for a minute. For one minute.
- 14:47Look at this. And suppose I am starting
- 14:49from A. Anti-clockwise direction,
- 14:51meaning upward direction. Okay? Okay? I
- 14:54will take a turn like this. First A
- 14:55will come, then B, then C, then D, and
- 14:57then back to A. So, how will I show the
- 14:59points? What is my very first point? My
- 15:02first point is X1, Y1. What is my next
- 15:04point? My next point is X2, Y2. What is
- 15:07my next point? X3, Y3, what is my next
- 15:10point? X4, Y4 and what is my last point
- 15:13? X1, Y1. So the interesting thing is
- 15:16you must end exactly where you started.
- 15:19If a student starts from B. B, C, D, A,
- 15:23B; it must end right back there.
- 15:26Meaning you started from B, then C, D,
- 15:29A, and ended back at B; another student
- 15:32starts from C. C, D, A, B, again C.
- 15:34Clear, kid? So you just have to follow
- 15:37the direction. You can follow whatever
- 15:39direction you want. But it cannot be
- 15:41that first it's A, then C, then B, then
- 15:43D. You failed the direction. That is
- 15:46why the sequence matters. Either
- 15:48anti-clockwise or clockwise. Okay?
- 15:51Either you take the anti-clockwise
- 15:52direction or you are taking the
- 15:54clockwise direction. So that is why the
- 15:56sequence matters. Clear, kid? So I took
- 15:58the first example as a random
- 16:00anti-clockwise direction. In 2 minutes,
- 16:03I will show you a proper example. Okay,
- 16:06let's take an example of clockwise.
- 16:09Let's take another example. Example of
- 16:12clockwise. Clockwise. Now suppose I
- 16:14feel like starting from D. This time my
- 16:16direction is clockwise. Okay? Let's go.
- 16:19So I started with D first. So what are
- 16:21the coordinates of D? D's coordinates
- 16:24are X4, Y4 and then X3, Y3 and then X2,
- 16:29Y2 and then X1, Y1 and then X4, Y4.
- 16:33Clear, kid? So that means you just have
- 16:36to follow a sequence. This time I went
- 16:38like this. Here is D, after D is C, D,
- 16:42C, B, A, D; what is this? D, C, B, A,
- 16:46again D; so the rule is that it must
- 16:50end exactly where it started. Now first
- 16:54thing, what is happening here? When the
- 16:56question comes in the exam, what will
- 16:58we do? Come on, let me show you an
- 17:00example. I will apply it properly and
- 17:03solve it for you. Then obviously, you
- 17:05will find this in the past papers as
- 17:06well. Definitely. Suppose I just
- 17:08plotted a triangle like this. Just like
- 17:11that, without thinking. I have no
- 17:13interest. What is the name of the
- 17:14triangle? Because I am only interested
- 17:16in the coordinates. The interesting
- 17:17thing is this. Now look, suppose this
- 17:19is the point. Alright? The coordinates
- 17:21of this point are 2, 3; suppose these
- 17:24are just random points I'm taking. And
- 17:26it's common sense anyway. If you join
- 17:28three points, they will definitely form
- 17:30some kind of triangle. Okay, what if
- 17:33this point here is C? Suppose the
- 17:35coordinates of this point are 3, 10,
- 17:37here you go. Now I need the area of
- 17:38this triangle. Clear, kid? Now it's my
- 17:41choice wherever I want to start.
- 17:44Counter-clockwise direction A, B, C, A,
- 17:47or I could go B, C, A, B. I could go C,
- 17:50A, B, C, or I could move this way. A, C
- 17:54, B, A, or I could move like this. C, B
- 17:58, A, C, or I could move this way. B, A,
- 18:01C, B, whatever you want, the answer
- 18:03will be the same for all. The
- 18:05interesting thing is, let's just do one
- 18:07specific thing. Okay, so now I need the
- 18:10area for this. Let's see, I'll apply
- 18:12Heron's formula and show you what Heron
- 18:14did. Here's the half. Suppose I am
- 18:17following the counter-clockwise
- 18:19direction; suppose A, then B, then C,
- 18:21and then A, B, C, and then A. Now tell
- 18:25me, what are the coordinates of A? The
- 18:27coordinates of A are 2, 3, look here
- 18:29kid, 2, 3, then what are the
- 18:31coordinates of B? 5, 4, then what are
- 18:33the coordinates of C? 3, 10, and then
- 18:35it ends at A again, 2 and 3. Here it is
- 18:38. So if you notice, I followed the
- 18:40counter-clockwise direction. I followed
- 18:43the counter-clockwise direction. Okay,
- 18:45kid? Look here. Mark it here. I
- 18:47followed the counter-clockwise
- 18:48direction. Right? Here you go. So to
- 18:51explain it to you, I'll write it up
- 18:53here that I wrote A. Here I wrote B.
- 18:55Then I wrote C, and then back to A.
- 18:57Meaning, I want to tell you that I
- 18:59followed the counter-clockwise
- 19:01direction. Okay, kid? I followed this
- 19:03direction. Like this, counter-clockwise
- 19:06, first A, then B, then C, and then A.
- 19:08Now, how is Heron's formula applied?
- 19:11This is the most important thing, how
- 19:13is Heron's formula applied? Watch
- 19:15carefully, kid. This is the interesting
- 19:17part. In Heron's formula. Actually,
- 19:19some children use a term. Shoelace
- 19:21method. Shoelace, like the laces on
- 19:24shoes. First you expand this way, then
- 19:26you expand that way. So some kids call
- 19:28it the shoelace method. Look here, kid,
- 19:30the first task is to look at my arrows
- 19:33first. I request everyone to look at my
- 19:35arrows first. These are upward arrows.
- 19:37So what is the first thing I will do?
- 19:39Look at my arrows first. These are my
- 19:40arrows. Upward arrows. I request
- 19:42everyone to watch carefully first. Okay
- 19:44, son? First, focus on my working.
- 19:46Upward arrows. It goes like this first.
- 19:492*4, 5*10, 3*3, first these diagonals
- 19:53are multiplied. So, what will it be
- 19:55here? 4*2 = 8 plus 5*10 = 50 + 3*3 = 9,
- 20:00so always multiply diagonally like this
- 20:04first. Then comes the minus sign. Then
- 20:07comes the opposite working. Okay? That
- 20:10was the first part. Then comes the
- 20:11opposite working. Look here. Now look
- 20:13at my arrows again. Now my arrows are
- 20:15downward. That is why some kids also
- 20:17call this the shoelace method. Shoelace
- 20:19. Now what will happen? 5*3*4, 2*10,
- 20:23there you go. Now make it easy. What
- 20:26will this be? 5*3 = 15, 4*3 = 12, and
- 20:2910*2 = 20, there you go. Clear, son?
- 20:32Now let's simplify this a bit. Now make
- 20:35it even easier. When I make it even
- 20:38easier, this becomes half. This becomes
- 20:40modulus. Now what is inside? 59, 60, 67
- 20:43, there you go. So, this is 67. There
- 20:47will be some numeric answer, right?
- 20:48Here it is. Now what is this? 20, 30,
- 20:5140, 47, there you go, so what did we
- 20:52get? We got 47, there you go, 67-47 is
- 20:58what? 20, so it means whether inside it
- 21:03was +20 or -20. What will the modulus
- 21:06do? What will the modulus result always
- 21:08show? The modulus will always show a
- 21:11positive result. So it means, what area
- 21:13will be derived? The area derived will
- 21:16be 10 units squared. This is finally
- 21:19the area derived. So in Heron's formula
- 21:21, you just have to follow the direction
- 21:24. Whether you work with respect to
- 21:26anti-clockwise or with respect to
- 21:29clockwise. Okay, son? Whether you work
- 21:31anti-clockwise or work clockwise.
- 21:34Ultimately, whether it is + 8-10 or
- 21:3810-8 inside. Ultimately, what is to be
- 21:40derived from both? It should be the
- 21:42same. Ultimately, the answer from both
- 21:44should be the same. Let me do one thing
- 21:46. I will try this question again, once
- 21:49more. But this time, I will take some
- 21:53other direction. I will start from
- 21:55somewhere else. Here we go. I want to
- 21:56show that my result will still be the
- 21:58same. Look, here you go. When I worked
- 22:012 minutes ago, I took the
- 22:02anti-clockwise direction, right, upward
- 22:04. Now I will do one thing. I will take
- 22:06the clockwise direction. Here you go.
- 22:07Let's go. I just randomly started with
- 22:10C. Let's go. I'll show you the answer
- 22:12will be the same. First I started, 3,
- 22:1410 and then 5, 4 and then 2, 3 and then
- 22:173, 10 there you go. So I started, first
- 22:20I wrote...what did I write first? I
- 22:22wrote C, then B, then A, then back to
- 22:25C. Clear, kid? If you notice, I started
- 22:28with C, after C I wrote B, then I wrote
- 22:30A, then I wrote C. Clear, kid? Wherever
- 22:33it starts, it must end exactly there.
- 22:35Now see how this area will come about.
- 22:37How will it be found? Please just watch
- 22:39my working first. Alright? First it
- 22:42happens like this: 4*3, 3*5, 10*2, look
- 22:46, 4*3, 3*5, 2*10, so if I simplify this
- 22:50, if I simplify this, what will the
- 22:54answer be? 4*3 = 12 + 5*3 = 15 + 10*2 =
- 22:5920, there you go, this is the upward
- 23:03direction. What do we call this sign?
- 23:06Modulus sign. Then there is the
- 23:07backward arrow, the reverse. Then it's
- 23:09like this: 5, 10, 2*4, 3*3, that's what
- 23:12I told you, right? First it goes like
- 23:14this, look at these upward arrows, then
- 23:16the backward arrows, here they are.
- 23:19Alright? Upward minus backward. So if I
- 23:22summarize, technically it's happening
- 23:23like this, first these arrows, then you
- 23:24have these arrows. Interestingly, even
- 23:27if you reverse it, the result will
- 23:28still be the same. Obviously, obviously
- 23:32. Now what will happen? Now it will be
- 23:34like this, look: 50 + 8 + 9, see, look
- 23:37what happened here? 50 + 8 + 9, here it
- 23:40is. Showed it as 50 + 8 + 9, there you
- 23:43go, there you go. Now finally simplify
- 23:46it. When simplified, the order was
- 23:50reversed. It became 47-67,
- 23:53interestingly, there it is. So what is
- 23:5747-67? -20, but I mentioned that the
- 24:00property of modulus is that the modulus
- 24:02will show the answer of a negative as
- 24:04what? Positive. So look, what answer
- 24:06did you get? 20/2, so ultimately the
- 24:10area found is also...The area found is
- 24:1410 units squared. Clear, kid? So you
- 24:17have many options. You can start from
- 24:19wherever you want. But the rule is that
- 24:22wherever it starts, it must end exactly
- 24:23at that position. This was a
- 24:25mathematician. His name was Heron. He
- 24:27did some new work. He did a new piece
- 24:29of work. It said that you just provide
- 24:32the coordinates. The area will be found
- 24:34out. Meaning, if I tell a student, "Hey
- 24:36, these are four points." Then, if the
- 24:39student knows Heron's formula, they can
- 24:41find the area without sketching.
- 24:44Meaning, they don't need to know if
- 24:46it's a square, rhombus, rectangle,
- 24:48trapezium, parallelogram, or kite. This
- 24:51Heron's formula was a new formula
- 24:53derived by the mathematician Heron. Is
- 24:56that clear, son? So, this is not a
- 24:57mensuration-based formula, because
- 25:00mensuration-based formulas depend on
- 25:02length. This formula is dependent on
- 25:04coordinates. So, the name of this
- 25:06formula was Heron's formula. Is that
- 25:08okay, son? In the last session, I
- 25:10taught you mensuration-based formulas.
- 25:12Now it's Heron's formula, meaning the
- 25:14area of a polygon. In our syllabus,
- 25:16there are only two polygons. Triangle
- 25:18and quadrilateral. Three sides and four
- 25:20sides. A shape with three points and a
- 25:22shape with four coordinates or four
- 25:24points. Is it clear, son? Now look at
- 25:27the fifth point of this same chapter.
- 25:29This point is 100%O-Level Maths. 100%
- 25:32clear, son? 100%, now let me guide you.
- 25:36The name of this point is Equation of a
- 25:37Straight Line. This is 100%O-Level
- 25:39Maths. By the way, there is nothing
- 25:41extraordinary in this. Is that okay,
- 25:42son? This is 100%O-Level Maths.
- 25:45Equation of a straight line. Look,
- 25:47let's, first of all, let me start you
- 25:49off with a few basic things. What did
- 25:52we study in O-Level Maths? We must have
- 25:54studied it in O-Level Maths. There was
- 25:56a topic in O-Level Maths called
- 25:58Coordinate Geometry. Then in
- 26:00transformations, inequalities, and
- 26:02graphs of functions, you must have read
- 26:03it many times. There are three
- 26:06different types of lines in Maths. You
- 26:07often see some lines like these in
- 26:09coordinate geometry. Horizontal lines,
- 26:12meaning lines parallel to the x-axis.
- 26:14Then you also see lines like these in
- 26:16coordinate geometry: vertical lines.
- 26:19Vertical lines, meaning vertical, or
- 26:20parallel to the y-axis. And then you
- 26:23also see some lines like these in Maths
- 26:26, which we call tilted lines, inclined
- 26:28lines, or lines with a slope. We study
- 26:32all these lines in O-Level Maths. Okay,
- 26:34perhaps if you recall, we studied such
- 26:36lines in O-Level Maths. Look, these are
- 26:39all horizontal lines! Then we studied
- 26:42lines like these in O-Level Maths, look
- 26:44at these, the ones I am drawing now; I
- 26:46haven't explained any equation or
- 26:47concept yet. In O-Level Maths, we kept
- 26:50calling these vertical lines, lines
- 26:51parallel to the y-axis. Then we used to
- 26:53see such lines as well in O-Level Maths
- 26:55. Here are the types of lines we used
- 26:57to see in O-Level Math. We used to call
- 27:00these tilted lines. Lines with a slope.
- 27:03Lines with a slope. This is all your
- 27:05O-Level Math. These are all your lines.
- 27:07By the way. We used to call all of
- 27:09these lines. Obviously, these are all
- 27:11lines. Now I will get you started one
- 27:14by one. Okay? First, we will start with
- 27:17slant lines. Our topic name is '
- 27:19Equation of a Straight Line', which is
- 27:22100%O-Level Math, 100%okay. So, first
- 27:25we start with a slant line. Okay? We
- 27:28must have studied it in O-Level Math:
- 27:30slant line, slant line. Well, we used
- 27:33to hear another word for this as well,
- 27:35you can call it a 'slant line'. Come on
- 27:37, we also used to hear another word,
- 27:39call it 'slant' or this too. Actually,
- 27:42there is a proper word used for this in
- 27:44Math, and that word is 'oblique'. Right
- 27:47, okay? Line with a slope. We also call
- 27:49this a line with a slope. Line with a
- 27:53slope. Line with a slope. We studied
- 27:56all of this in O-Level Math. So we are
- 27:58starting with the first type of line.
- 28:00Okay? From the first type of line.
- 28:02Meaning, we are starting with this type
- 28:04of line. Then I will guide you in more
- 28:05detail. Here it is. Now my first
- 28:07interest is in these types of lines
- 28:08that we used to study in O-Level Math.
- 28:10And obviously, we will study it now in
- 28:12A-Level Math. Our interest is in this
- 28:14type of line. So we have studied before
- 28:16that whenever a line is of this type,
- 28:18its gradient is always positive. And we
- 28:19have also studied before that whenever
- 28:21a line is of this type, its gradient is
- 28:23always negative. We studied two things
- 28:25in O-Level Math. Now please watch very
- 28:28carefully. We studied two things in
- 28:30O-Level Math. Some students use these
- 28:32equations in O-Level Math as well. y =
- 28:33mx + c Okay? This is called the
- 28:38slope-intercept form. By the way, maybe
- 28:41some student remembers the name, so in
- 28:42the language of Math, it is called the
- 28:44slope-intercept form. Slope-intercept
- 28:47form. Even if we don't know the name,
- 28:50no issue. This is what we studied in
- 28:52O-Level Math. This is called the
- 28:54equation of a tilted line, diagonal
- 28:56line, slant line, line with non-zero
- 28:58slope, use any word you like. Okay?
- 29:01Well, this is what we studied in
- 29:03O-Level Math. mx + c, if we remember
- 29:04O-Level maths, what was 'm' in this? We
- 29:07called M the gradient of the line, rise
- 29:10over run, and then what was 'c' in this
- 29:13? In the language of math, we called 'c
- 29:16' the y-intercept of the line. I am
- 29:19talking about O-Level maths; I will
- 29:21explain O-Level maths obviously, and in
- 29:23this condition, what were 'x' and 'y'?
- 29:26'x' and 'y' were called any point on
- 29:28the line. What were 'x' and 'y'? A
- 29:30point on the line. Meaning every point
- 29:32that is on the line was called 'x' and
- 29:34'y' in math. You studied this in
- 29:36O-Level maths. Right? I am telling you
- 29:38something very basic. You could say a
- 29:39given point on the line, any point on
- 29:41the line, every point on the line. You
- 29:44must have studied in O-Level maths that
- 29:46whenever, let me just show you some
- 29:47rough sketches. Just giving you an idea
- 29:49. Look, all these lines that cut above
- 29:53the x-axis. Look, all these lines that
- 29:57cut above the x-axis. These lines that
- 30:00are above the x-axis, we used to say
- 30:02all of them have positive y-intercepts.
- 30:04We know that in O-Levels, we used to
- 30:06say any point where a line touches the
- 30:07y-axis is called the y-intercept. Now,
- 30:10all these y-intercepts that are below
- 30:13the x-axis, these are all negative
- 30:15y-intercepts. Look, all these
- 30:17y-intercepts are negative. Obviously,
- 30:19we would say, man, their y-intercepts
- 30:22are negative. And this line passing
- 30:25through the origin, we used to say in
- 30:27O-Levels that this line's y-intercept
- 30:29is zero. Remember? Meaning if a line
- 30:32cuts above the x-axis, we say its
- 30:34y-intercept is positive. If a line cuts
- 30:37below the x-axis, we used to say its
- 30:39y-intercept is negative. When a line
- 30:41passed through the origin, we used to
- 30:43say its y-intercept is zero. This is
- 30:45about O-Level maths, by the way. Right?
- 30:48And obviously, what used to be the
- 30:49gradient of this type of line? The
- 30:51gradient used to be positive. In two
- 30:52minutes, we will see examples of all
- 30:54these. Then there was this second model
- 30:56in O-Level maths. Right? This was the
- 30:58second model. I have drawn exactly the
- 31:00same thing again. Right? This is all
- 31:02O-Level maths. Obviously, 100%. But
- 31:06obviously, we will cover the complete
- 31:07course. So, I will revise these basic
- 31:09things as well. Look at these lines
- 31:12cutting above the x-axis. What is the
- 31:15y-intercept of all these? The
- 31:17y-intercept of all these is positive.
- 31:20These lines cutting below the x-axis,
- 31:22these lines cutting below the x-axis,
- 31:25what did we say their y-intercept was?
- 31:27Their y-intercept is negative. This is
- 31:30also O-Level math. And the line that
- 31:33passed through the origin, we used to
- 31:36say its y-intercept is zero. Okay,
- 31:39child? The line that passes through the
- 31:41origin, we used to say its y-intercept
- 31:42is zero. Look, this line I am
- 31:44highlighting on purpose. We used to say
- 31:47that this line has a y-intercept of
- 31:50zero. This is your O-Level math. Right?
- 31:52We will look at this in a bit more
- 31:54detail now. Right now, I am just doing
- 31:55a quick revision. Clear, child? We will
- 31:58obviously look at it in detail after a
- 31:59while. The name of this form was
- 32:01slope-intercept form. We must have
- 32:02studied this very frequently in O-Level
- 32:04math. Right, then we also used to study
- 32:06another form. We used to show this form
- 32:08like this. There was another point too.
- 32:10This was called the point-gradient form
- 32:12. Okay? Come on, look at this. We used
- 32:14to study one more form of O-Level math.
- 32:16y-y 1 equals m times x-x 1, here it is.
- 32:19There was one more form we used to
- 32:21study as well. Here is that form. Okay?
- 32:23Students study this form in O-Level
- 32:25math and Add-Maths as well. In this
- 32:27form, y-y 1 equals m times x-x 1, look,
- 32:31what was m? What did we obviously used
- 32:34to call m? Gradient or slope. Gradient
- 32:37or slope in O-Level math. And this x1,
- 32:41y1, we used to call it in math language
- 32:47, "given point on the line". This is
- 32:51your O-Level math, by the way. And what
- 32:54were x and y? "Any point on the line".
- 32:57What are x and y? We used to call x and
- 33:02y, "any point on the line". Is it clear
- 33:07, child? So, we studied both of these
- 33:09things in O-Level math. Sometimes it
- 33:12also happened that to confuse us, the
- 33:14examiner would show the equation of a
- 33:17line like this too. Look, he used to
- 33:20say, show it like this. This will
- 33:22happen in A-Levels too. It will say
- 33:24find the equation of the line passing
- 33:25through A and B in this form. Sometimes
- 33:27it will ask to show it like this. The
- 33:29examiner will provide it like this as
- 33:31well. The required form could be like
- 33:32this too. The examiner will ask you to
- 33:34express your line in this form. Alright
- 33:37? We will do it. Sometimes the examiner
- 33:39says to express your line like this.
- 33:42You will find all these styles in the
- 33:43paper. It is possible the examiner asks
- 33:45you to show it like this. To express
- 33:47the equation of a straight line in this
- 33:49form. ax + by = c, show it like this.
- 33:53So, this thing will be required in
- 33:54A-Level Maths in Coordinate Geometry.
- 33:57Sometimes they will say, well,
- 33:58sometimes they won't mention anything.
- 33:59Sometimes it will say find the equation
- 34:01, express the equation of the line in
- 34:02this form. Sometimes it will say
- 34:03express the equation of the line in
- 34:04this form. Is it clear, child? Now
- 34:06let's deal with them one by one, what
- 34:08we used to study in O-Level Maths. This
- 34:10is 100%O-Level Maths. mx + c and y-y 1
- 34:13= m (x-x 1), this topic is 100%O-Level
- 34:18Maths. Okay, now look, we used to see
- 34:20three situations in O-Level Maths,
- 34:22three. Alright? I will guide you one by
- 34:25one on what the situations were and
- 34:28what we used to do in O-Level Maths.
- 34:30Okay, child? So, let me revise O-Level
- 34:33Maths for you once, regarding what you
- 34:35have studied in O-Level Maths. Okay,
- 34:38child? There used to be three models.
- 34:39Model number one. Alright? So that this
- 34:42whole thing gets covered. Model number
- 34:44one was that, suppose you have this
- 34:45point. Then I will guide you. One point
- 34:48is given on the y-axis. Suppose this
- 34:51point is 0, 2, there you go. So, I am
- 34:53now giving three different examples.
- 34:55And this point on the line is given: 4,
- 34:586, the examiner used to say, "Find the
- 35:00equation of the line, find the equation
- 35:02of the line passing through A and B,"
- 35:04meaning the examiner is saying in this
- 35:06form that you tell the equation of this
- 35:08particular line. Okay, let's go. Now
- 35:10that student, okay, there is no
- 35:12restriction. Number one option, number
- 35:15one option, number one. Okay, now look,
- 35:19child, option number one. Okay, what do
- 35:21I need? The equation of the line. Now
- 35:24the student who uses this equation mx +
- 35:26c, mx + c, that student will straight
- 35:28away say, "Man, the y-intercept is
- 35:30right here, the y-intercept is two." So
- 35:33they will immediately say, "Buddy, c is
- 35:34two, here you go." They will
- 35:35immediately say, "Buddy, c is already
- 35:37given." The student will immediately
- 35:39say, "c is already given, done." So, in
- 35:40this condition, what will the student
- 35:42do? Find out the gradient. If the
- 35:44student is smart, they know the
- 35:45gradient without working. Right, they
- 35:48know the gradient formula without
- 35:50working? The gradient formula is y2-y1.
- 35:54What formula for gradient did we study?
- 35:56y2-y1 over x2-x1, there you go. Okay?
- 36:00So, by chance, what is the gradient?
- 36:01One. What did this gradient turn out to
- 36:04be by chance? +1, there you go, the
- 36:06gradient is one. It had to be something
- 36:08, obviously. So then, what would the
- 36:10student do? You need the equation of a
- 36:11straight line. So what will the student
- 36:13do? Put one in place of m. Put two in
- 36:15place of c. This is your equation of a
- 36:17straight line found. This is your
- 36:19O-Level Math. Finished. This is
- 36:22situation number one. This is the first
- 36:24situation. There you go, kid, this is
- 36:26the first situation. Whatever the
- 36:28coordinates or points are, I’m just
- 36:30giving you an idea. The idea is that in
- 36:32this condition the intercept was given,
- 36:35and one point was also already given.
- 36:38Okay? Now, the second option used to be
- 36:40this. The second option. Okay? This is
- 36:43obviously such a basic thing that every
- 36:44student must know it. I think. Here you
- 36:47go. Look at one more example. Now
- 36:49suppose there is a student who uses
- 36:51this equation. Now suppose there is a
- 36:53student who uses this equation. y-y 1 =
- 36:55m times x-x 1, a student uses this
- 36:58equation. This is also a perfectly
- 37:00valid equation. So what will this
- 37:02student do first? Find out the gradient
- 37:04. Obviously, y2-y1 over y2-y1 over x2-
- 37:07x1, here it is. So first they will find
- 37:10the gradient. Its gradient came out to
- 37:12be one. Now which point is x1 y1?
- 37:15Whether you use this as x1 y1 or you
- 37:17use that as x1 y1, the result from both
- 37:19will be the same. Clear, kid? So now
- 37:22use whichever point you want. Now
- 37:24suppose a student says I will use this
- 37:27point as x1 y1. So y-y 1 = m times x-x
- 37:301, there you go. Now when the student
- 37:33simplifies this further, y-x = x-4,
- 37:35there you go. When the student
- 37:37simplifies this further, what result is
- 37:39derived? y = x + 2, meaning both
- 37:42results were derived as the same. Same
- 37:45derived. Now, if any student has a
- 37:46doubt, they can definitely use the
- 37:48other point. Here you go. Now if a
- 37:50student says, "No sir, I will use this
- 37:52point x1 y1," then you can use this. So
- 37:54, what will the answer be? y-y 1 equals
- 37:56m times x-x 1, here it is. So when you
- 37:59simplify this, what will the answer be?
- 38:01x + 2, here it is. This means no matter
- 38:03which x1 y1 point you take, what result
- 38:05will finally be derived? The same
- 38:07result will be derived. This was your O
- 38:09Level Math. Clear, son? So it means
- 38:12whether you use y = mx + c or use this.
- 38:14But the interesting thing is that in A
- 38:17Level Math, this is the examiner's
- 38:19favorite equation. Clear, son? Okay,
- 38:21shall I show you another model if I may
- 38:24? I am showing you all the
- 38:25possibilities or situations. Look, let
- 38:27me show you another example. Suppose
- 38:29you have this condition. Here you go.
- 38:31Now suppose you have this one point.
- 38:33Take any coordinates for it. Suppose
- 38:35this point is 2 4 and this is another
- 38:37point. Its coordinates are 6 10, here
- 38:39you go. The examiner says, "Find the
- 38:41equation of the line passing through
- 38:43points A and B," okay? Now, the student
- 38:45who uses this mx + c equation in O
- 38:48Level Math, what will that student do?
- 38:51Look, if a student uses mx + c, what
- 38:53will they do? Look, here is the
- 38:57equation y = mx + c, there it is. Now
- 39:01the issue is that you neither have c
- 39:03nor do you have the gradient. Okay? So
- 39:06here, you will have to make both
- 39:07efforts yourself. So what did the
- 39:09student use to do first? In O Level
- 39:10Math, they used to find the gradient.
- 39:12What is the formula for the gradient?
- 39:14The gradient formula is y2-y1 over x2-
- 39:16x1, here you go, y2-y1 over x2-x1. So
- 39:19the student will say their gradient is
- 39:216/4 or 3/2. If you want to simplify it,
- 39:24go ahead, 3/2, there you go, that is
- 39:26the gradient. So then what did we use
- 39:28to say in O Level Math? We used to say,
- 39:30"Hey, the equation is mx + c," so the
- 39:31equation became something like this.
- 39:33Here you go. Then we used to find c. We
- 39:36know what x and y are. Any point on the
- 39:39line. Any point on the line. Now you
- 39:41can take whichever point you want.
- 39:42Suppose a student says to me, "Sir, I
- 39:44will use this point." No issue. Now you
- 39:46use this point. Okay? What did you do?
- 39:49You substituted the point. Here you go.
- 39:51You substituted the point. Here you go.
- 39:53Let's simplify it even further. So from
- 39:55here, the two and the two got cancelled
- 39:56. From this, we found out what the
- 39:57answer for C is? One. What did the
- 39:59answer for C become? One. There you go.
- 40:01The answer for C is found to be one.
- 40:03When the answer for C is found to be
- 40:04one, a student will say there is a
- 40:05Y-intercept, and there is a gradient
- 40:07too. What was your target? Your target
- 40:09was the equation of the line. So, what
- 40:11is the equation of the line? mx + c. So
- 40:15now, what will be its final answer?
- 40:17Finally, the answer will be 3/2x and
- 40:20finally + 1; this will be your final
- 40:23answer. Clear, kid? This is your answer
- 40:25. Alright. Now, the student who uses
- 40:27the second option. Suppose a student
- 40:30uses the second option. Option number
- 40:32two. Okay? So their answer will
- 40:34obviously be the same too. What was the
- 40:36second option? y-y 1 = m times x-x 1,
- 40:40finished. Here it is. So now, this
- 40:43student obviously has to find what
- 40:44first? Gradient. y2-y1 over x2-x1,
- 40:48meaning gradient is a must, obviously.
- 40:516/4 = 3/2, so the gradient for this
- 40:53student will also be what? It will be
- 40:55the same. Here it is. Now, which point
- 40:57is x1 y1? Any point. x1 y1 is called a
- 41:00given point on the line. Whether you
- 41:03take this one or you take that one. Is
- 41:05it clear, kid? So now suppose a student
- 41:07says, "Sir, I will use this." Okay?
- 41:09Let's say a student says, "Sir, I will
- 41:10use this point." Some student tells me,
- 41:13"I will use this one." Now what will
- 41:15you do? What is the equation? y-y 1;
- 41:17what is the gradient? 3/2 x-x 1, here
- 41:20you go. What will x-x 1 be? Here you go
- 41:23. Okay? You considered a point as x1 y1
- 41:26. 2, 4, here you go. y2-y1, y-y 1 = m
- 41:31times x-x 1. Meaning, what point did
- 41:34this student take as X1, Y1? 2, 4; if
- 41:37you don't want to take this, you can
- 41:39ignore it; take 6, 10. The result from
- 41:41both will be what? It will be the same,
- 41:42obviously. Okay, now make it a bit
- 41:44easier. When you make it easier, this
- 41:47is Y-4. This is 3/2x. This multiplied
- 41:51to become three. Now if this four goes
- 41:53there and gets added, it will become 3/
- 41:552x + 1, that's it, done. The result
- 41:58will be the same, you check it. That is
- 42:01why I am forcefully showing both
- 42:02options. Look, in front of you, I have
- 42:05shown both options, and I know that
- 42:06finally, the answer from both methods
- 42:08will be what? Same. What will the
- 42:11answer be from both methods? Same. In
- 42:13O-Level Math, such a third-class
- 42:14question used to come too. Such a
- 42:16third-rate thing. If you note this
- 42:19question. Suppose you have a question.
- 42:21Call it C, call it A. Let's say this
- 42:23point is 0 3 and the gradient is
- 42:24already given, here it is two.
- 42:26Sometimes it is written, "Find the
- 42:28equation of the straight line whose
- 42:29y-intercept is 0, 3, and gradient is
- 42:31two". So now in O-Level Math, if you
- 42:33look, this is the easiest example. By
- 42:35the way, if I tell you that I require
- 42:38its equation, then this is the easiest
- 42:40question. What is your target? Your
- 42:43target is the equation of the line mx +
- 42:45c, here it is, mx + c. So what will the
- 42:47student say? The student will say the
- 42:49gradient is two and the y-intercept is
- 42:513, so simply, what has been found here?
- 42:53The equation of the straight line. Done
- 42:55, this is the equation of the straight
- 42:58line. If a student uses the second
- 43:00option, obviously their result will
- 43:01also be what? It will be the same. If a
- 43:04student uses the second option. Look,
- 43:06what is the second option? y-y 1, m
- 43:09times x-x 1, here it is. Well, now from
- 43:13this too, the result will obviously be
- 43:15the same. All the examples are in front
- 43:17of you. The answer is the same for all.
- 43:18So look, the student will say the
- 43:19gradient is already given. Here it is,
- 43:21the gradient is two. So x1 y1 is what
- 43:23we call the given point on the line. So
- 43:25that is the only point, 0 3, and there
- 43:27is no other option. So what will the
- 43:30student do? y-y 1, m times x-x 1, here
- 43:34it is. So when you simplify this, what
- 43:37answer will be derived? The answer
- 43:39derived will be 2x + 3, so finally,
- 43:42note why I did this question repeatedly
- 43:44—so that I could show you that
- 43:46ultimately, the answer from all will be
- 43:49what? It will be the same. Is that
- 43:51clear, kid? So this is what we used to
- 43:53study in O-Level Math. We used to
- 43:55classify this type of line. A line with
- 43:57a slope, a slanted line, a diagonal
- 44:00line, a tilted line. Or for this line,
- 44:03another word is also used in Math:
- 44:05oblique. Oblique. Right? So I just
- 44:08showed you the first example. We
- 44:10started with a slanted line. Here it is
- 44:13. We started with a slanted line. We
- 44:15started with a very basic thing, a
- 44:17slanted line. Like we used to study in
- 44:18O-Level Math. Right? Slanted line, line
- 44:21with slope, oblique, clear. Okay, then
- 44:23we used to study one more thing in
- 44:25O-Level Math. This was a simple matter.
- 44:28Right? Then in O-Level Math, we used to
- 44:30study another type of line as well.
- 44:32Look at that one too, child. Okay? The
- 44:34second type of line, we must have
- 44:35studied this in O-Level Math as well.
- 44:37Okay? We used to call this a horizontal
- 44:39line. Okay? We must have studied this
- 44:42in O-Level Math too. Horizontal line.
- 44:44Okay? This was in O-Level Math as well.
- 44:46Interestingly, this is also going to be
- 44:48used in our syllabus. Obviously, that
- 44:50is why we are studying it. We aren't
- 44:51doing anything extra. Clear? Whatever
- 44:54the syllabus requirements are, we will
- 44:56check those conditions one by one. Then
- 44:59finally, we will start the practice.
- 45:01Alright, son? Now your target is the
- 45:02second one, the horizontal line. This
- 45:05was also a type of line. The previous
- 45:07type you studied, what was the name of
- 45:09the previous type you studied? It was
- 45:11called a line with a slope. Tilted line
- 45:14, diagonal, inclined, slope, oblique,
- 45:16there you go. We call it a horizontal
- 45:19line in O-Level Math. See, what is the
- 45:21meaning of a horizontal line? We say in
- 45:23O-Level Math that a horizontal line
- 45:26means a line parallel to the x-axis, a
- 45:29line parallel to the x-axis. Clear?
- 45:33Also, let me show you an example. We
- 45:37have studied in O-Level Math, all these
- 45:39lines, all the lines I am drawing, here
- 45:41it is, all these lines, we used to call
- 45:43all these lines, what are they? These
- 45:46are all lines parallel to the x-axis.
- 45:48All these lines, the gradient of all
- 45:51these lines will obviously be zero. We
- 45:53studied this in O-Level as well. I will
- 45:56repeat. What is the reason for that?
- 45:58The reason is that we studied in
- 46:00O-Level that the gradient of the x-axis
- 46:03is always zero. For a gradient, a rise
- 46:06is a must. So, in a horizontal line,
- 46:09there is no rise at all. In a
- 46:10horizontal line, there is no rise at
- 46:12all. Tell me one thing, if I give you a
- 46:15small example. Just a very basic
- 46:17example, that I considered two points
- 46:19on the x-axis. Well, first of all,
- 46:22there is no need to calculate this. We
- 46:24have known since childhood that the
- 46:26gradient of the x-axis is always zero.
- 46:28Check it, when you move horizontally on
- 46:31the x-axis, moving horizontally means
- 46:33there is no rise. There is only run and
- 46:35nothing else. Run, meaning your
- 46:37horizontal change is occurring. So, if
- 46:39you force the gradient formula, you
- 46:41will say y2-y1 over x2-x1, and you will
- 46:44say, well, the gradient will always
- 46:46come out to be zero. So we know that if
- 46:49the gradient of the x-axis is zero,
- 46:51then what should the gradient of every
- 46:53line parallel to the x-axis be? It
- 46:56should be zero. Therefore, if we talk a
- 46:58bit sensibly, we studied mx + c today,
- 47:01right? So that means m is not even
- 47:03possible, right? m became zero straight
- 47:05away. So when m is 0. When m is zero,
- 47:09that's why we learned in O-Level math
- 47:12that a horizontal line means y =
- 47:15constant. y = constant, and common
- 47:18sense also says that when you draw a
- 47:21horizontal line, say y = 3, there is no
- 47:23change in y on it. What is changing on
- 47:26it? When you mark any point, they will
- 47:28all have one thing in common.
- 47:30Everyone's y-coordinate will be fixed.
- 47:32So what will change in all of them? The
- 47:35change in all of them will be in x. So,
- 47:37can I also say what a horizontal line
- 47:39means? A horizontal line means y =
- 47:43constant. y = constant. And if your
- 47:47math is a bit stronger, you must have
- 47:49learned in O-Level math that any line
- 47:52above the x-axis means y is greater
- 47:54than zero. Because when we move upwards
- 47:57above the x-axis, y always increases.
- 48:00On the x-axis, y is always zero. And
- 48:03whenever we move under the x-axis, y
- 48:05always decreases. We say y is always
- 48:07negative. y is always negative. So what
- 48:10does this mean? y = constant? Meaning,
- 48:14on a horizontal line, there is only a
- 48:17change in x. Let me show you a simple
- 48:20example again. Suppose, I have written
- 48:23a line...a line y = 3, now look, this
- 48:26is one, this is two, this is three,
- 48:28this is four, this is five, this is six
- 48:30; these are your values on the x-axis.
- 48:33Now notice one thing, all these values
- 48:35on the x-axis! Now notice one thing, as
- 48:38you extend all these points, look, here
- 48:40it is, here it is. If I explain this to
- 48:44you in detail, then for any point on
- 48:46this line, its x will keep changing,
- 48:48but y is fixed, right? If I ask you
- 48:51what this point is? Then you will say
- 48:53sir, its coordinates are 4, 3, if I ask
- 48:55any child what this point is? So the
- 48:57child will immediately say its
- 48:58coordinates are 6 3, so what does that
- 49:00mean? On a horizontal line, y doesn't
- 49:02change at all. y is always constant.
- 49:05What changes? x is always what changes.
- 49:08That is why we don't really consider
- 49:09the horizontal line that much. By the
- 49:11way. So we always say a horizontal line
- 49:13means no change in, no change in y. No
- 49:15change in y. y is always constant. y is
- 49:19always constant. Okay, then we used to
- 49:21study one more thing in O-Level Math.
- 49:23Okay? We used to study one more thing
- 49:25in O-Level Math. Maybe we remember. Its
- 49:27name was vertical line. Okay? We used
- 49:30to call these vertical lines in O-Level
- 49:33Math. We must have studied this in
- 49:34O-Level Math too. Especially there was
- 49:36a topic, reflection. Transformation. In
- 49:39transformation, a child studies this
- 49:41very frequently. Vertical lines. Well,
- 49:43everything is important. When will our
- 49:46math be strong? When we make sense of
- 49:48everything. Okay, what did we study in
- 49:51O-Level Math? In O-Level Math, it was
- 49:54used a lot in inequalities,
- 49:56transformations, especially reflection.
- 50:00Vertical line. We used to say, man,
- 50:02what is the meaning of a vertical line?
- 50:04Vertical lines mean a line parallel to
- 50:06the y-axis. A vertical line means a
- 50:08line parallel to the y-axis. Look at
- 50:10this. If you remember a little bit of
- 50:13O-Level Math. If you remember a little
- 50:15bit of O-Level Math, these used to be
- 50:17vertical lines. Look, I have
- 50:19deliberately drawn some lines in yellow
- 50:21color. I just drew some lines randomly.
- 50:24Now you note one thing. All these lines
- 50:27are parallel to the y-axis. All these
- 50:30lines are parallel to the y-axis. Look,
- 50:32all these lines are parallel to the
- 50:35y-axis. Okay? We already know these are
- 50:37parallel to the y-axis. And maybe some
- 50:39child remembers coordinate geometry.
- 50:40Even today we studied previously that
- 50:43the gradient of the x-axis is always
- 50:45zero. So the gradient of the y-axis is
- 50:48always -1/0, meaning we call it
- 50:51undefined. Meaning for a vertical line,
- 50:53we don't even use the word gradient.
- 50:55Mostly we don't use it at all. In fact,
- 50:58just as we say that in a horizontal
- 51:00line there is no change in y, y is
- 51:03constant. So similarly, what did we
- 51:05study in O-Level Math? Let me show you
- 51:07a small example we studied in O-Level
- 51:09Math. First, suppose you have this one,
- 51:11this two, this three. Here you go.
- 51:13Suppose you have this three. Now, if I
- 51:16draw a vertical line from this. See, I
- 51:18have drawn a vertical line. Here it is.
- 51:20This vertical line passes through three
- 51:22. Now, notice one thing. Okay, I have
- 51:24drawn the vertical line. Here it is.
- 51:26This vertical line is passing through
- 51:27three. So, in O-Level Math, we used to
- 51:30call vertical lines x = constant. Just
- 51:33like horizontal lines are called y =
- 51:35constant. So, this was called x =
- 51:37constant because x is fixed on it.
- 51:40Meaning, look at what is changing here?
- 51:42If you check, the x-coordinate is the
- 51:44same. The y-values are continuously
- 51:46changing. Notice. If I ask a student, "
- 51:49Hey, what is this point?" Let's say if
- 51:52I tell a student, "This is 1, 2, 3, 4,
- 51:565, -1, -2, -3, okay?" I gave an example
- 51:59to the student. If I ask a student what
- 52:01this point would be. Then what will the
- 52:03student say immediately? The student
- 52:05will say, "Sir, 3, 1; 3, 1 is right
- 52:07here." If I tell a student, "Hey, what
- 52:09would this point be?" Then the student
- 52:11will say, "1, 2, 3, 4, 5," so the
- 52:13student says, "3, 5," which means what
- 52:16is fixed on this? What is fixed on this
- 52:20? The x-coordinates are fixed on this,
- 52:23the x-coordinates are fixed, while y is
- 52:26changing. So, when you talk about a
- 52:29horizontal line, x is changing on a
- 52:31horizontal line, and common sense says
- 52:33y is changing on a vertical line.
- 52:35Common sense. If it's a vertical line,
- 52:37y will change. x will be constant. If
- 52:40you talk about a horizontal line, x
- 52:42will change. y will be constant. Clear,
- 52:45kid? So, we used to call this a
- 52:47vertical line. We don't even talk about
- 52:49the gradient of vertical lines in math.
- 52:52So, if I summarize a bit more, we used
- 52:55to say that all these vertical lines,
- 52:57what did we call all these vertical
- 52:59lines? We used to call all these
- 53:02vertical lines x > 0. Does any student
- 53:04remember what we called the y-axis? x
- 53:07is 0, and these vertical lines I am
- 53:09drawing on the left side, we used to
- 53:11call them all x < 0; we studied this in
- 53:13O-Level Math, and common sense says
- 53:15that on the left side, x-values are
- 53:17negative, and on the y-axis, x is
- 53:19always zero. On the y-axis, x is always
- 53:23zero. You learned this in O-Level Math.
- 53:26Learned in O-Level Math. Similarly, we
- 53:28kept calling this y > 0, here we kept
- 53:30saying y < 0, and here we kept saying y
- 53:33= 0, so we learned in O-Level Math that
- 53:35what is the x-axis called? We call the
- 53:38x-axis y = 0, y = 0, so there is
- 53:42nothing extraordinary in this. So today
- 53:45we just looked at the equation of a
- 53:47straight line. We looked at oblique,
- 53:49slant, inclined, slope, and tilted
- 53:51lines. Then we looked at a horizontal
- 53:54line, a line parallel to the x-axis.
- 53:57Then we looked at a vertical line. A
- 53:59vertical line means a line parallel to
- 54:01the y-axis. A line parallel to the
- 54:04y-axis. Finally, one last point of
- 54:06coordinate geometry. Then, InshaAllah,
- 54:09we will first practice all this
- 54:10coordinate geometry. Clear, beta? Here
- 54:13is one more last point. The name of
- 54:15this point is. By the way, this point
- 54:17is also carried forward from O-Level
- 54:19Math. This point is also carried
- 54:20forward from O-Level Math. The name of
- 54:22this point is the equation of the
- 54:23perpendicular bisector. Perpendicular
- 54:25means 90 degrees. Bi means two. Sector
- 54:28means to divide. So now I will explain
- 54:31what a perpendicular bisector is. This
- 54:34is, by the way, carried forward from
- 54:35O-Level Math. Okay? Perpendicular
- 54:37bisector. Okay? We must have learned
- 54:39this in O-Level Math. Look closely.
- 54:41What was O-Level Math? Suppose I tell
- 54:43you, look, I have a line here. Okay? I
- 54:47am just giving a random example. Random
- 54:48, this point we also studied in O-Level
- 54:50Math. Look at this. So suppose this
- 54:52point is your A. This point is your B.
- 54:55If the examiner asks me to find the
- 54:57equation of the perpendicular bisector
- 55:00of line AB. The examiner asks me to
- 55:05find the equation of the perpendicular
- 55:08bisector of the line through A and B.
- 55:12So, what did we use to do in O-Level
- 55:16Math? Look at this. What we used to do
- 55:19in O-Level Math, look closely, beta.
- 55:21What does a perpendicular bisector do?
- 55:23Number one. In O-Level Math, we kept
- 55:24saying this line is the perpendicular
- 55:26bisector. In O-Level Math, we kept
- 55:28saying that this line I drew is the
- 55:30perpendicular bisector. Why? How? What
- 55:34did we learn in O-Level Math? Number
- 55:35one. A perpendicular bisector, what is
- 55:38the job of a perpendicular bisector?
- 55:41The job of a perpendicular bisector is
- 55:43to bisect the given line. Meaning, to
- 55:46divide it into two equal parts. The
- 55:48word perpendicular means 90 degrees.
- 55:51Look, the word perpendicular means 90
- 55:53degrees. So, if anyone asks us what a
- 55:56perpendicular bisector does? So, what
- 55:58is required for a perpendicular
- 56:00bisector? Look, what are the qualities
- 56:02of a perpendicular bisector? What are
- 56:05its properties? So, whenever we talk
- 56:08about a perpendicular bisector. Okay?
- 56:10Perpendicular bisector of a line
- 56:12through A and B, let's say, or call it
- 56:14line AB. Line through A and B is
- 56:17actually the proper term. So, the first
- 56:18thing, where does the perpendicular
- 56:20bisector of any line pass through? Rule
- 56:23number one: a perpendicular bisector
- 56:26always passes through the midpoint of
- 56:29the given line. We learned in O-Level
- 56:32Math that to perpendicularly bisect,
- 56:34see, if a line has to be bisected,
- 56:36where will it always be bisected from?
- 56:38From the middle. So, what is the job of
- 56:40a perpendicular bisector? To break your
- 56:42given line into two equal parts. Is
- 56:45that clear, son? Number two: if the
- 56:47gradient of your given line is m, then
- 56:48what will be the gradient of the
- 56:50perpendicular bisector? The negative
- 56:51reciprocal. What does the word
- 56:53perpendicular even mean? Negative
- 56:54reciprocal. So, the second thing I
- 56:56would tell you is, what is the gradient
- 56:58of a perpendicular bisector? If someone
- 57:01asks us what the gradient of a
- 57:02perpendicular bisector is? Then what is
- 57:05it always? It is always the negative
- 57:08reciprocal. The negative reciprocal of
- 57:12the given line, the negative reciprocal
- 57:16of the given line. So, it is very clear
- 57:19that you have this line here. You have
- 57:21to bisect this line. "Bi" means to
- 57:23divide into two parts. So, when is
- 57:25something divided into two parts? When
- 57:27it is broken from the center. So, where
- 57:29does a perpendicular bisector always
- 57:31pass through? Through the middle, and
- 57:33it always forms 90 degrees with the
- 57:35line. With the given line. So, the
- 57:37gradient of the perpendicular bisector
- 57:38is always the negative reciprocal of
- 57:40the given line. Is that clear, son?
- 57:42Negative reciprocal of the given line.
- 57:43So, always remember these two things.
- 57:45Whenever the word "perpendicular
- 57:47bisector" is used, you must first have
- 57:50an understanding of these two things.
- 57:52Is that clear, son? If you have a sense
- 57:54of these two things, then we will start
- 57:56with perpendicular bisectors slowly.
- 57:58Perpendicular bisector. By the way, for
- 58:00a perpendicular bisector. Let's first
- 58:02use the word "perpendicular bisector"
- 58:04once more. "Perpendicular" means 90
- 58:06degrees. "Bi" means two. "Sect" means
- 58:09to divide. Okay? Okay? "Bi" means two,
- 58:12"sect" means to divide. Okay? So, what
- 58:14does a perpendicular bisector do? It
- 58:16divides your given line into two equal
- 58:18halves, two equal parts. Actually,
- 58:20another word is also used for a
- 58:22perpendicular bisector. So, let me
- 58:24write a word here first. So, another
- 58:26word is also used in math for a
- 58:29perpendicular bisector. And that word
- 58:32is line bisector. A perpendicular
- 58:35bisector is also called a line bisector
- 58:37. Because the perpendicular bisector
- 58:39itself is a line. All right? And what
- 58:42is its job? To bisect a given line.
- 58:44That is, a line that bisects a given
- 58:47line, divides it into two equal halves
- 58:51and forms a 90-degree angle with it, is
- 58:54called a perpendicular bisector.
- 58:57Another name for it is line bisector.
- 59:00If you are a bit smart, when the
- 59:02perpendicular bisector divides the
- 59:04lines equally, it means this is its
- 59:05mirror image and this is its mirror
- 59:07image. So I can also say that the
- 59:10perpendicular bisector is a line of
- 59:13reflection. If you have a little bit of
- 59:16common sense. Where will the
- 59:17perpendicular bisector pass from?
- 59:18Through the center. It divided it into
- 59:20two equal halves. The distance from the
- 59:23midpoint to this side is the same as
- 59:24the distance to the other side. So this
- 59:27is its mirror, and this is its mirror.
- 59:30So for the perpendicular bisector, I
- 59:32can also use this word. Line of
- 59:34symmetry. Let's say the perpendicular
- 59:37bisector did this: it divided your
- 59:39given line into two equal parts. So the
- 59:42point that was on the right has its
- 59:43mirror here, and the one on the left
- 59:45has its mirror here. That's what a
- 59:46perpendicular bisector means, right? So
- 59:48what is the perpendicular bisector
- 59:50itself? The perpendicular bisector
- 59:52itself is a line. And what is its job?
- 59:55To bisect a given line. Clear, kid? To
- 59:58bisect a given line. I'll show you a
- 1:00:00small example. Then we'll start slowly.
- 1:00:03Suppose I show you a random O-Level
- 1:00:05math style question. O-Level math style
- 1:00:08. Suppose you have this point and this
- 1:00:10point. I am just giving a random
- 1:00:12example. I am just giving a random
- 1:00:14example. Suppose you have a point here.
- 1:00:16The coordinates of that point are 2, 4.
- 1:00:18There you go. And another point. The
- 1:00:20coordinates of that point are 6, 10.
- 1:00:22There you go. 6, just a random example.
- 1:00:25The examiner says, "Find the equation
- 1:00:27of the perpendicular bisector of the
- 1:00:30line through A and B, find the equation
- 1:00:32of the perpendicular bisector of the
- 1:00:34line through A and B, of the line
- 1:00:36through A and B." Now, Insha'Allah, I
- 1:00:38will have you practice all of this, and
- 1:00:40show you examples of everything. First
- 1:00:43thing, okay? Now we need the
- 1:00:45perpendicular bisector. First thing,
- 1:00:47what does a perpendicular bisector do?
- 1:00:49It divides your given line into two
- 1:00:51equal parts. Straight away, what is the
- 1:00:54first thing I did? The first thing
- 1:00:56means, what is it supposed to do? You
- 1:00:59must always bisect the given line. Form
- 1:01:02a 90 ° angle. That means you must
- 1:01:03always divide the given line into equal
- 1:01:05parts. Is that clear, son? I will show
- 1:01:07it like this. Here you go. Now, show
- 1:01:09the 90 ° angle like this. Plot it a
- 1:01:10bit more properly. Here you go. That
- 1:01:12will work. So, what is the job of a
- 1:01:14perpendicular bisector? To divide the
- 1:01:15given line into two equal parts. Is it
- 1:01:17clear, son? Now, look, this white line
- 1:01:21is called the perpendicular bisector of
- 1:01:24AB. Okay? So, below this white line, I
- 1:01:27will write that this is my target. Who
- 1:01:30is this line? This line is the
- 1:01:32perpendicular bisector. What is another
- 1:01:34name for it? Line bisector. Meaning the
- 1:01:36line that divides your given line into
- 1:01:38two equal parts. What is the first
- 1:01:41thing you will do? The first thing you
- 1:01:43will do is find out. The midpoint of AB
- 1:01:45. The midpoint of AB. So, what is the
- 1:01:47formula for the midpoint? x1 + x2/2,
- 1:01:49what is the formula for the midpoint?
- 1:01:52x1 + x2/2, y1 + y2/2, look, this is the
- 1:01:57midpoint formula. What is the midpoint
- 1:02:00of AB? x1 + x2/2, y1 + y2/2, here it is
- 1:02:07. So, what is the midpoint? The
- 1:02:09midpoint is 4, 7; this is your midpoint
- 1:02:12. So, this means that your line, the
- 1:02:16white perpendicular bisector, will pass
- 1:02:18through which point? It will pass
- 1:02:20through the midpoint, that is, through
- 1:02:224, 7. Is it clear, son? This is a very
- 1:02:25basic thing. Number two, if I ask you
- 1:02:28what the gradient of the given line is?
- 1:02:30What is the gradient of the given line?
- 1:02:33Then you will use the simple formula
- 1:02:35for gradients. y2-y1, x2-x1, here you
- 1:02:38go. So the student will say, "Sir, it's
- 1:02:40simple, here is the formula." 6/4, 3/2,
- 1:02:42there you go, this is the gradient of
- 1:02:44the given line, meaning what is the
- 1:02:45gradient of the given line? The
- 1:02:47gradient of the given line is 3/2, so
- 1:02:49that means what will be the gradient of
- 1:02:51the perpendicular bisector? The
- 1:02:53gradient of the perpendicular bisector
- 1:02:55will be the negative reciprocal, i.e.,
- 1:02:57-2/3, here you go. Now, what is your
- 1:03:00target? You need the equation. Now your
- 1:03:02target is achieved. Your target is
- 1:03:05achieved. Because you need two things
- 1:03:07for the equation. A point and a
- 1:03:10gradient. So, which point will be used?
- 1:03:12The midpoint will be used as the point.
- 1:03:14Here you go. The point will be the
- 1:03:16midpoint. What gradient will you take?
- 1:03:18The gradient of this will be -2/3.
- 1:03:21There you go, that's it. What is your
- 1:03:24target? The equation of a straight line
- 1:03:26. So, what will you say now? Use the
- 1:03:28y-y 1 = m (x-x 1) formula, and that's
- 1:03:33it. Now, simplify this a little bit.
- 1:03:36Just simplify it. Is that clear, son?
- 1:03:38Now, simplify it however you like. What
- 1:03:41does this become now? 3y-21 = -2 x + 8,
- 1:03:45there it is. So I can show it like this
- 1:03:48as well. 3y = -2 x + 29, here it is.
- 1:03:52Right here. Sometimes the examiner asks
- 1:03:53to show it this way too. Show it as ax
- 1:03:56+ by + c = 0. That's not an issue. You
- 1:03:59bring the x here first. Here is x, then
- 1:04:02you write y. Here is y, then you bring
- 1:04:04the constant here. Take this. A student
- 1:04:06would say, this is the equation. That's
- 1:04:08it. And if you want to write it in the
- 1:04:11form mx + c, just write -2/3x + 29/3,
- 1:04:14here it is. So, this is not rocket
- 1:04:16science. This is exactly O-Level Math.
- 1:04:19It is exactly O-Level Math. So, for the
- 1:04:22perpendicular bisector, just keep two
- 1:04:23things in mind. Where does the
- 1:04:25perpendicular bisector always pass
- 1:04:26through? The midpoint of the given line
- 1:04:28. And what is its gradient? The
- 1:04:30gradient of the perpendicular bisector
- 1:04:32is always the negative reciprocal of
- 1:04:35the given line. Okay, now I'm telling
- 1:04:37you something interesting. Okay? Now I
- 1:04:39am telling you something new. Okay?
- 1:04:41Finally, God willing, we will start
- 1:04:43practicing this now. Look at a new
- 1:04:45thing. Now I am showing you some 2D
- 1:04:47shapes. Okay? I am showing you some 2D
- 1:04:50shapes. Properties of 2D shapes. First,
- 1:04:52you look at them for a minute or two.
- 1:04:56Properties of 2D shapes. We have
- 1:05:01studied some properties of 2D shapes
- 1:05:03slowly from time to time. We studied
- 1:05:06their properties as the right time came
- 1:05:08. Now I am showing some 2D shapes. The
- 1:05:12perpendicular bisector is used in some
- 1:05:14three or four 2D shapes. Let's see how.
- 1:05:17Number one. Number one. First of all,
- 1:05:19if we talk about a square. Okay? So
- 1:05:22look carefully, son. Because we have
- 1:05:25studied the shapes repeatedly. Square,
- 1:05:27rhombus, rectangle, parallelogram,
- 1:05:30trapezium, kite, right-angled,
- 1:05:33isosceles, equilateral. Look, I am
- 1:05:36talking about the square again now.
- 1:05:38Clear, son? Now I will explain to you
- 1:05:40what a perpendicular bisector is. Well,
- 1:05:42we have already studied the properties
- 1:05:44of a square before. The corners are 90
- 1:05:46degrees. Now, if I explain this in more
- 1:05:49detail, both diagonals of a square
- 1:05:51bisect each other. Is that clear, kid?
- 1:05:55Keep this in mind: both diagonals of a
- 1:05:58square bisect each other. So, I can say
- 1:06:02AC and BD are perpendicular bisectors
- 1:06:06of each other. This AC and BD are
- 1:06:10perpendicular bisectors of each other.
- 1:06:15Perpendicular bisectors of each other.
- 1:06:18What do these two do to each other?
- 1:06:20They bisect each other. So that means,
- 1:06:22where is AC? What must AC be doing? If
- 1:06:24it bisects BD, where must AC pass
- 1:06:26through? Through the midpoint of BD.
- 1:06:28What must the gradient of AC be? The
- 1:06:30negative reciprocal of BD. What must BD
- 1:06:33be doing? BD must be bisecting AC. What
- 1:06:37will the gradient of BD be? The
- 1:06:39negative reciprocal of AC. So, remember
- 1:06:42that in a square, both diagonals do
- 1:06:44what to each other? They bisect each
- 1:06:47other. Clear? So, these properties
- 1:06:49should be known as well. Look at one
- 1:06:51more thing. One more shape. We had
- 1:06:53studied one more shape. Let's look at
- 1:06:55that again too. Rhombus. A rhombus also
- 1:06:58has perpendicular bisectors. Let's
- 1:07:00check. A rhombus also has perpendicular
- 1:07:03bisectors. We have studied before, what
- 1:07:05is a rhombus? A rhombus is a tilted
- 1:07:06square. A square that is tilted. So,
- 1:07:09what happens inside a rhombus? Both
- 1:07:11diagonals of a rhombus also always
- 1:07:14bisect each other. What does bisect
- 1:07:17mean? To divide into two equal parts.
- 1:07:20To divide into two equal parts. Clear,
- 1:07:23kid? This is regarding the rhombus.
- 1:07:25Here is A, B, C, D; so if I talk about
- 1:07:29a rhombus, it has the same property. In
- 1:07:32a rhombus too. Okay? So this property
- 1:07:35applies to the rhombus as well. This
- 1:07:37property is for the rhombus and this
- 1:07:39property is for the square too. Here
- 1:07:41you go. These are the common properties
- 1:07:44between these two. Clear, kid? What was
- 1:07:46the name of the shape? The name of the
- 1:07:48shape was square and the name of the
- 1:07:50shape was square and rhombus. Okay, kid
- 1:07:52? Now I am explaining one or two more
- 1:07:54things. Okay? So, let me give you all
- 1:07:57the basic knowledge once. Then, God
- 1:07:59willing, we will start our chapter.
- 1:08:02Alright, now I am explaining one more
- 1:08:04thing. We must have often seen another
- 1:08:05shape in math. Kite, about the shape.
- 1:08:08Kite. Kite. Okay? Now what happens in a
- 1:08:12kite? Note this. Kites also have
- 1:08:14perpendicular bisectors. You must have
- 1:08:16read this in O-Level Math too. The
- 1:08:18topic name would be Mensuration. Okay,
- 1:08:20kid? The topic name will be Mensuration
- 1:08:23. Suppose you have a shape here. The
- 1:08:25name of the shape is a kite. So what
- 1:08:27happens in a kite? Note this down. Now,
- 1:08:29I'm telling you an interesting thing.
- 1:08:31Suppose this is A, this is B, this is C
- 1:08:33, this is D. See, in a kite, this
- 1:08:35triangle is small and this one is
- 1:08:37larger. Obviously. This line here, the
- 1:08:41longer diagonal, bisects the smaller
- 1:08:44diagonal. It divides it into two equal
- 1:08:47parts. The smaller one cannot bisect
- 1:08:49the larger one because the midpoint of
- 1:08:51the larger one would be somewhere else.
- 1:08:53So, when we talk about a kite, what
- 1:08:55happens in a kite? In a kite, we say BD
- 1:09:00is the perpendicular bisector of AC. In
- 1:09:07a kite, they don't both bisect each
- 1:09:10other. This longer diagonal, the larger
- 1:09:13one, what is its job? To bisect the
- 1:09:16smaller one. So BD is the perpendicular
- 1:09:18bisector. Meaning BD bisects AC, BD
- 1:09:22bisects AC, here it is. So what does BD
- 1:09:25do? It divides your AC into two equal
- 1:09:28parts. Done. It divides it into two
- 1:09:31equal parts. So, in a kite, there is a
- 1:09:34perpendicular bisector too. Meaning, in
- 1:09:37a kite, the longer diagonal is the
- 1:09:39perpendicular bisector. If you wonder
- 1:09:41who BD is? Then a student would ask who
- 1:09:43is BD? BD is the longest diagonal. BD
- 1:09:46is the longest diagonal. So the longer
- 1:09:49diagonal or the longest diagonal
- 1:09:51bisects the smallest one. It bisects
- 1:09:53the smallest one. Take a look at one
- 1:09:56more small thing. Look at another small
- 1:09:58thing. We study another triangle. The
- 1:10:01name of the triangle is isosceles
- 1:10:02triangle. We must have studied it many
- 1:10:04times under different conditions.
- 1:10:05Isosceles triangle, isosceles triangle.
- 1:10:09Note a property within an isosceles
- 1:10:11triangle as well. We studied a topic
- 1:10:13before this called circular measurement
- 1:10:15. We studied it there too. If I tell
- 1:10:17you this triangle is isosceles. Then
- 1:10:19the student will immediately say that
- 1:10:21these two base angles will be equal.
- 1:10:23Every student knows this. What is its
- 1:10:25property? That when you drop a line,
- 1:10:28okay? When you drop a line, where will
- 1:10:31you drop it from? Between the two equal
- 1:10:33sides, it will always do what to the
- 1:10:35base? It will bisect it. What will it
- 1:10:38do to the base? It will bisect it.
- 1:10:40Change the triangle. Change the
- 1:10:43triangle. Suppose you have this
- 1:10:45situation. There you go. Change the
- 1:10:47triangle. Take another isosceles. There
- 1:10:49you go. Suppose this and this are both
- 1:10:50equal. So, math says that these two
- 1:10:51angles will then be equal. Math says
- 1:10:53then these two angles will obviously be
- 1:10:55what? They will be equal. Look, the
- 1:10:56base angles will be what? They will be
- 1:10:58equal. There you go, these two base
- 1:11:00angles will be equal. If this is alpha,
- 1:11:01then math says this is also alpha. So,
- 1:11:03when you drop a line from here between
- 1:11:05two equal sides, what does that line
- 1:11:07always do to the base? It always
- 1:11:09bisects the base. What does it always
- 1:11:12do to the base? It bisects it. So, I
- 1:11:14will give this a name. This is A, this
- 1:11:16is B, this is C, this is D. Let's name
- 1:11:17this one too. A, B, C, D. So, who is AC
- 1:11:22here? AC is the perpendicular bisector.
- 1:11:25AC is the perpendicular bisector. Okay?
- 1:11:27Now, whether the situation is like this
- 1:11:29, math will say these two angles of
- 1:11:31yours are equal. So, when I drop a line
- 1:11:34from here, what will this line do to
- 1:11:35the base? This line will bisect the
- 1:11:39base. Clear, son? You can name this A.
- 1:11:41Name this B, this C, this D. This is
- 1:11:44all isosceles for you. So, what is AC
- 1:11:47here? I can say here that AC is the
- 1:11:52perpendicular bisector of BD, that's it
- 1:11:58. So, there is a perpendicular bisector
- 1:12:02in isosceles as well. Clear, son? Look,
- 1:12:05in this, both of these are bisecting
- 1:12:08each other. This is bisecting this. AC
- 1:12:11is bisecting BD. Okay? Similarly, BD is
- 1:12:15bisecting AC. In this, BD is bisecting
- 1:12:19AC. In this, AC is bisecting BD. Clear?
- 1:12:22Who are all these? Perpendicular
- 1:12:23bisectors. And just one last thing. Now
- 1:12:26, God willing, our coordinate geometry
- 1:12:28basics are done. Now, God willing, we
- 1:12:30will practice this. Now, look at one
- 1:12:32more thing. This point is named
- 1:12:34equilateral triangle. You must have
- 1:12:35studied this in O Level math as well.
- 1:12:37You also studied it in circular
- 1:12:38measurement in A Level math.
- 1:12:40Equilateral triangle. What does
- 1:12:42equilateral mean? Look, equilateral
- 1:12:44means all sides are equal. We already
- 1:12:47know what an equilateral triangle means
- 1:12:49, one where all sides are equal. We
- 1:12:52used to call it a regular polygon in O
- 1:12:53Levels too. So, this means this and
- 1:12:55this are both equal. Note this. This
- 1:12:57and this are both equal. So, when we
- 1:12:59drop a line, it will bisect the base.
- 1:13:01Obviously, this and this are also equal
- 1:13:03. So, when we drop a line from here, it
- 1:13:05will bisect the base. When we drop a
- 1:13:08line from here as well, what will it do
- 1:13:09to the base? It will bisect it. Clear,
- 1:13:12kid? So that means it has three
- 1:13:14perpendicular bisectors. Alright, kid?
- 1:13:18It has three perpendicular bisectors.
- 1:13:21Okay? When we talk about what? An
- 1:13:24equilateral triangle. Alright, kid?
- 1:13:27When we talk about an equilateral one,
- 1:13:29it has three perpendicular bisectors.
- 1:13:31When you drop a line, it will bisect
- 1:13:33the base. Alright, kid? And what will
- 1:13:36it form with the base? 90 °. So I told
- 1:13:39you this so that at least you know
- 1:13:41which shapes have perpendicular
- 1:13:43bisectors. Clear, kid? So today we have
- 1:13:46finally completed all these seven
- 1:13:49points that are considered basic
- 1:13:51coordinate geometry for AS. Clear, kid?
- 1:13:55In the next class, God willing, we will
- 1:13:57start practicing basic coordinate
- 1:13:59geometry from here. Alright, kid? Allah
- 1:14:01Hafiz.
