Question

Two objects, A and B, are moving along two different straight lines at constant speeds. With reference to a particular coordinate system in which distance is measured in metres, the position of A at time t (in minutes) is (2t − 1, 3t + 3), and the position of B is (5t − 2, 2t + 5).

Let d be the distance between A and B at time t. Show that an expression for d 2 in terms of t is given by d 2 = 10t 2 − 10t + 5.

System that uses coordinates to uniquely determine the position of points. The most common coordinate system is the Cartesian system, where points are given by distance along a horizontal x-axis and vertical y-axis from the origin. A polar coordinate system locates a point by its direction relative to a reference direction and its distance from a given point. In three dimensions, it leads to cylindrical and spherical coordinates.
