Same Side of a Line — Geometric Condition
Line: x + y - 1 = 0
Point 1: (3, 2) → Lies on the side where value is positive:
f(3, 2) = 3 + 2 - 1 = 4 > 0
Point 2: (\cos\theta, \sin\theta) lies on same side if:
\cos\theta + \sin\theta > 1
Using identity:
\cos\theta + \sin\theta = \sqrt{2} \sin\left(\theta + \frac{\pi}{4}\right)
\Rightarrow \sin\left(\theta + \frac{\pi}{4}\right) > \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}
So:
\theta \in \left(0,\ \frac{\pi}{2}\right)
✅ Final Answer:
\boxed{\theta \in \left(0,\ \frac{\pi}{2}\right)}
Qus : 5 Phrases PYQ 2024 4 If the perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining p(1,4) and q(k,3) has yintercept -4, then the possible values of k are

Given: Points: P(1, 4) , Q(k, 3)
Step 1: Find midpoint of PQ
Midpoint = \left( \dfrac{1 + k}{2}, \dfrac{4 + 3}{2} \right) = \left( \dfrac{1 + k}{2}, \dfrac{7}{2} \right)
Step 2: Find slope of PQ
Slope of PQ = \dfrac{3 - 4}{k - 1} = \dfrac{-1}{k - 1}
Step 3: Slope of perpendicular bisector = negative reciprocal = k - 1
Step 4: Use point-slope form for perpendicular bisector:
y - \dfrac{7}{2} = (k - 1)\left(x - \dfrac{1 + k}{2}\right)
Step 5: Find y-intercept (put x = 0 )
y = \dfrac{7}{2} + (k - 1)\left( -\dfrac{1 + k}{2} \right)
y = \dfrac{7}{2} - (k - 1)\left( \dfrac{1 + k}{2} \right)
Given: y-intercept = -4, so:
\dfrac{7}{2} - \dfrac{(k - 1)(k + 1)}{2} = -4
Multiply both sides by 2:
7 - (k^2 - 1) = -8 \Rightarrow 7 - k^2 + 1 = -8 \Rightarrow 8 - k^2 = -8
\Rightarrow k^2 = 16 \Rightarrow k = \pm4
✅ Final Answer: \boxed{k = -4 \text{ or } 4}
Qus : 10 Phrases PYQ 2024 1 The points (1,1/2) and (3,-1/2) are
1 In between the lines 2x+3y=6 and 2x+3y = -6 2 On the same side of the line 2x+3y = 6 3 On the same side of the line 2x+3y = -6 4 On the opposite side of the line 2x+3y = -6 Go to Discussion Phrases Previous Year PYQ Phrases NIMCET 2024 PYQ Solution
Given:
Points: A = (1, \frac{1}{2}) , B = (3, -\frac{1}{2})
Line: 2x + 3y = k
Step 1: Evaluate 2x + 3y
For A: 2(1) + 3\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = \frac{7}{2}
For B: 2(3) + 3\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right) = \frac{9}{2}
✅ Option-wise Check:
In between the lines 2x + 3y = -6 and 2x + 3y = 6 :
✔️ True since \frac{7}{2}, \frac{9}{2} \in (-6, 6)
On the same side of 2x + 3y = 6 :
✔️ True , both values are less than 6
On the same side of 2x + 3y = -6 :
✔️ True , both values are greater than -6
On the opposite side of 2x + 3y = -6 :
❌ False , both are on the same side
✅ Final Answer:
The correct statements are:
In between the lines 2x + 3y = -6 and 2x + 3y = 6
On the same side of the line 2x + 3y = 6
On the same side of the line 2x + 3y = -6
