The points A (4, 7), B (p, 3) and C (7, 3) are the vertices a right triangle, right-angled at B find the value of p.


Given ,
The vertices of a right triangle, such as,
A (4, 7), B (p, 3) and C (7, 3) 



In right ΔABC, using Pythagoras theorem

(AB)2 + (BC)2 = (AC)2  

⇒ [(3 - 7)2 + (p - 4)2] + [(3-3)2 +(7 - p)2] = [(3-7)2 + (7 - 4)2]

⇒ (p - 4)2 + (7 - p)2 = 9

⇒ p2 + 16 -8p + 49 + p2 - 14p = 9

⇒ 2p2 - 22p + 56 = 0

⇒ p- 11p + 28 = 0

⇒ p2 - 4p -7p + 28 =0

⇒ p(p - 4) -7(p - 4)=0

⇒ (p - 7 )(p - 4) = 0

⇒ p - 7 = 0 or p - 4 = 0

⇒ p = 7 or p = 4

Hence, the value of p is 4 or 7
